OK, we knew this was coming. But I’m still not sure I think it’s a good idea…but then, it’s not exactly a bad idea, either. And it certainly is a cheap look to pull off.

   One of the designers on Project Runway did this a few seasons back

   A cheap look to pull off, and a very easy one to ruin. Those would snag and run with just a few minutes outside.

   cool idea for runway, bad idea to wear outside.

   I like the fishnet look alot.

   This reminds me of those ice-skating tights you would pull over your skates. I’m still undecided about this look.

   all you’d need to do is cover the sole with black duct tape, and it should last through a night out.

   I used to do this over my boots when I was gogo-ing.

   @Barb Black duct-tape covered wedges actually sound like a much nicer piece of haute fashion; anyone willing to make prototypes?

   I love the way the fishnet pattern is stretched on the side. I’d really like to see this accomplished in a more permanent way, a separate stitched layer over the leather shoe.

    Typhoid – interesting idea, that might be a neat way to revitalize an old worn-out but beloved pair of boots.

    I’m picturing myself slipping and flying across the metro station in these.

    I wish I could find the picture, but I recently came across a photo from a 1930′s Vogue shoot, where the model was wearing striped ankle socks over her shoes.

    It looked pretty cool there, but I don’t know how I feel about the hose.
