Shoe Tuesday: Beijing Punk
…will appear here once I work out where I put that cursed memory card reader
Le Shoe Tuesday est arrivee!
This weekend I was in Beijing for a Bachelor party / Stag weekend. Sadly the bachelor couldn’t make it, but we struggled on manfully without him.
WoAi has already started writing about it, Dingle was there too- it’s going to be the most blogged two days since- oh I don’t know, EVER!
In Beijing they have so much live music that the occasional youth gets carried away and starts dressing the full part. It’s not my thing (what’s wrong with a nice pair of slacks?) but you can’t tell the kids these days.
So what does your Beijing punk-in-the-street wear on his punk feet?
They are what I believe is known as Brothel Creepers.

good lord, the suspense is killing me here!
There’s a fella in my office wears trousers tighter than that. He’s gonna love these.
thems are crepes aren’t they? platform ones at that!
I was glad when we saw this guy, it was the only thing that shut you up about the thing which happened about 10 minutes previously.
1. those platforms are heinous.
2. are his “pants” painted on?
3. 10 minutes earlier, huh . . .
Dingle- I’m assuming you don’t want me to start talking about it again
WoAi- they are very Willnotmatt as it happens. I think the two may share some fashion influences (Daddy Long-Leg Spiders, the bin at Jim Henson’s studio).
Angie- they’re not for everyone are they?
Swiss, oh I heard so much about it the other day that I’m totally numb to it now.
Worst case of flabby butt I’ve ever seen – what’s with his keys hanging off the belt. The security in BJ must be better than here!
