WHAT ARE THOSE
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican_pointy_boots
I’d argue it’s a toned down version of these. Go to any mostly Mexican party/club, and you see these.
…elongating the toe of normal boots by as much as 5 feet (1.5 m)
That’s excessive.
lol that’s the best name they could come up with for them?
It’s only worse with seagulls. I saw a cool big speckled seagull once and decided to google how it’s called. It’s called “big speckled seagull”. A small gray seagull would be called a “small grey seagull”. All the other animals are usually called something cool, like if you see a big beaver, it’s “Johnson’s beaver”, or an eagle, and it’s called a “southern nesting eagle”.
Then a fucking seagull is a fucking seagull.
Great for kicking someone in the sphincter from the front
Must be how they got their name
A person of culture, I see.
Those were extremely popular in a town where I worked between 2013 and 2016. As a non-Latina, I laughed a little when I first saw them, because I had never seen any shoes like that. Someone told me they were Oaxacan boots. Men who dress in traditional Oaxacan attire will often wear them.
Then you slowly follow the shoes up the uncannily thin and tall figure to be greeted with a sharp toothed smile, attached to the face of a tight skinned yet aged man “helllooo, pity about the loss of another” he states.
Reminded me of a Finnish rock group called Leningrad Cowboys. They were big over here I think when I was a kid at least.
Oh what’s this conveniently placed hole in the ground that I can push this dude in?
However if the deceased has these shoes its your duty to take them
Sometimes you need a little laugh when you’re in mourning. People wearing ridiculous shit is actually a thing that helps
i think there’s like a whole subculture around these shoes, no joke
edit - other people in thread explaining it better!
I’d be like “be cool, joshoff, it’s one of the super hot twins from Breaking Bad” 🥵
They look a lot like leeches.
