It stinks how we've gone mad for crazy shoes
I should probably move to Cairo, where,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], some years ago,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I saw that the owners of shoe stores had arranged rows of chairs on sidewalks outside their shops so that customers could come in the evenings to sit and stare through the windows -- as if the shoes were a performance,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a son et lumiere. My search for the perfect shoe has made me an inadvertent expert -- a horrified expert -- on shoe developments. I have noticed,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as you may have,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], that in recent years the designs of men's and women's shoes have grown both comic and hideous. What accounts for this? Shoes proclaim the foot. Terribly ugly statements are being made. Some of the proclamations verge on the psychotic.
The sneaker since then has gone through changes. It has specialized,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], subdividing into varieties for walking, tennis,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], basketball, running and something called "cross-training." The sneaker industry has ingested steroids and hallucinogens,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and produced astonishing effects, shoes that look like cumulus clouds, or reptiles of the Amazon basin,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or tarted-up space stations. Shoes have Incredible Hulked themselves (or perhaps, Robert Crumbed themselves) to assert an out-of-perspective importance -- rendering the foot (an absurd appendage anyway and best underplayed) ridiculously prominent, strange shapes elaborated by irrational patchworks of neon piping and gaudy metallic iridescences.
A doggedly competitive spirit of pseudo-childish Play and Fun seems to have taken over the thinking of the sneaker industry. Something of the same archly juvenile outlandishness has been at work designing women's shoes, which have the look of illustrations in a children's story -- blockish and clunkish and exaggerated. All fashion is an aesthetic of distortion. But platform shoes have risen so high you could use them to drill for oil in the Gulf. They look spectacular, even crazy,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and elevate foot fashion to the status of a major social hazard. A young woman in a car who tries to lift the great block on her right foot from accelerator to brake has become as dangerous as a gang member with a Glock 9mm.
The transition from the old-fashioned high heel (which women wore when I was young) to today's model does not look to me like progress for women. The old heel may have been just as hard to walk in, but was infinitely more graceful. The new shoes look as if they have a Frankenstein life and motion of their own; young women walk in them (ungainly and swaying,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], waving their arms for balance) the way an inexperienced rider sits an energetic horse that is barely under control. These shoes are a dangerous responsibility. Not much liberation there. In fact,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the shoes look like a kind of punitive hobbling -- a way to keep the women from running away. Are the platforms related obscurely to Chinese foot-binding?
Men's street shoes have shown tendencies toward the outlandish as well, though the deformations are subtler,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], taking the form of ghastly square-blockishness in the toe, for example (perhaps a way of allowing a 25-year-old management trainee at Chase to think he is still wearing his Doc Martens skinhead stompers). The mistakes in men's designs -- fortunately or unfortunately -- do not have the (screwball) style of the women's errors. The men's shoes merely have about them an air of stolid,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], depressing stupidity,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as if they had been designed 40 years ago in Communist Bulgaria. I trudge on.相关的主题文章：
