  2. I like the 5th one down in the left column. I'd buy them today!

  3. Total pageant shoes. How are you supposed to walk in some of those fabulous creations, though?

    ReplyDelete
  4. Ooh. I want some of those babies.

    ReplyDelete
  5. I like the peep-toe pumps all right, but the rest of them...not so much.

    ReplyDelete
  6. Yep, peep toe pumps=hot. The rest? Stripper/pageant shoes or sexy granny shoes.

    ReplyDelete
  7. Not being able to walk = not so sexy, in the end.
    Kayne, darling, is a shoe with less than a 3" heel too much to ask? I live in New York City. We walk here.

  8. Just one thing leaps to mind - Kayne hates women. We're more than mannequins, sweetie. We have nerves in our feet, and ankle bones that snap right in two.

  9. the pumps are cute but the rest are HOOKER shoes.

  10. I have some 4" heels and they're actually not bad at all once you get used to them (give them 2 days). I wouldn't recommend running a marathon in them, but I can wear them all day, same as any 3" heels. The trick is to get good ones that hold your foot well, and have the heel in the right place. Makes all the difference.

    Anyway I really hate to say it cause Kayne's adorable, but these look a little.... cheap? Especially the black ones with the rhinestones. I do LOVE the little ornaments hanging on them though, and the shapes of some of them. Maybe you have to see them in person, or maybe I just don't appreciate pageant shoes properly?

  11. I like some of them, but the heels are too high even for me. If they were slightly lower, I'd be more interested.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Sure, 4" heels are great if they're Manolos or Louboutins, expensive shoes that actually support your feet. But Kaynebow's shoes look like they were manufactured for K-mart or Payless.

  13. Hooker heels and cute peeptoe pumps. Befitting of Kaynebow, methinks.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Kayne, what's your favorite color?
    SHINY!

    ReplyDelete
  15. What min said. I'd wear the gold peep-toes...the rest will probably find a home at a Hustler club.

    ReplyDelete
  16. I love Kaynebow! Great shoes!!

    ReplyDelete
  17. The peep-toe pumps are HOT! Good luck, Kayne!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Stripper shoes! ..Well most of 'em.

    ReplyDelete
  19. I think the shoes are perfect for a pageant. They add the appropriate height and sparkle. I like them!

    ReplyDelete
  20. Jeebus! Those are some high heels.

    Makes my feet hurt just looking at them.

    Definitely pageant shoes.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Yep, sparkly and strappy. Definitely Kayne's shoes.

    And remember my darlings, the sex is in the heel!

    ReplyDelete
  22. LOVE Kayne, but I would only wear one or two of those. The top right pair are a little bit sketch. Is that a metallic, or clear heel? Nooooooooo!

    ReplyDelete
  23. Those shoes are as tacky as he is.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Love Kayne, love the pumps!

    ReplyDelete
  25. I like some of them. Is he selling them as beauty pageant shoes or "regular" shoes? That makes a huge difference.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Has Posh been alerted yet?

  27. What — no Elvis stiletto?

    ReplyDelete
  28. Some are darn cute! But as I'm one who never learned to walk in high heels (let alone spikes), I'll have to admire them from afar. (No lie: 25 years ago I was out dancing, wearing folk dance shoes with barely half-inch square heels and managed to break my foot. The ER nurse actually snickered.)

    ReplyDelete
  29. This is slightly off-topic, but to those who have trouble with high heels, wedges are much easier to walk in (and they don't get stuck in cracks on the ground), but still give you that confidence-boosting benefit of height and great posture. (Yes, I have a mild shoe addiction.)

    ReplyDelete
  30. I like them (shame!)... but I'd never wear them.

    Kayne, honey, why don't you wear a pair for a few hours. Then you might lower the heels on these puppies.

    ReplyDelete
  31. The shoes are fabulous. I'm definitely interested in buying them.

    ReplyDelete
  32. I love the last one. I love the color and the crown. Nice touch!

    ReplyDelete
  33. The first two are total hooker shoes and the last one on the right is a rip off of a shoe that steve madden did 3 years ago. I will not be purchasing . .. .

    ReplyDelete
  34. Like NinaGarcia said: "The taste level just isnt' there."

    ReplyDelete
  35. Some shoes are more fun to look at than to actually wear. These are Fabulon ready! Congrats, Kayne!

    ReplyDelete
  36. The boy does love his sparkles. But they look very flashy, trashy low-end. Maybe that's what he was going for, but I'm not slapping any plastic down for them.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I'm curious to know how much these shoes will cost. I hate to say this, but they don't look expensive.

    ReplyDelete
  38. "Kaynebow has shoes!

    And they're sparkly!"

    That is possibly the most redundent thing you have ever said. Could they have been anything else ?

    ReplyDelete
  39. Methinks these are not shoes in which to walk but rather shoes in which to lay on one's back. No matter, I still love the Kaynebow and wish him all the best.

  40. Did he design those shoes to go with Nick's prom dresses?

    ReplyDelete
  41. Er, uh, glad to see our darling Kayne is working. These would totally go with Michael's hot pants and gold and white stripper outfits.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Those shoes are so unoriginal, I have seen those in every bridal/prom wear shop in the bay area. If your gonna make pagent shoes, make them unique. Otherwise whats the point?

    ReplyDelete
  43. Those shoes scream "high school dances" to me. But in a good way!

    ReplyDelete
  44. Kayne's problem as a women's wear designer is that he projects too much of himself onto his customer--- he designs for a mythical woman whose main ambition in life is to f*ck a lot of men.

    ReplyDelete
  45. We used to call shoes like these 'Come Fuck Me Pumps'.

    I don't see any that I'd be interested in wearing...they're a little too overt for me.

    ReplyDelete
  46. These shoes are very sexy and that's what they're meant to be. I have to say, though, that I find some of the "anonymous" comments to have a disturbingly similar syntax and hostility to them. Let it go, already, whoever you are!

    ReplyDelete
  47. laura s, I don't mind the off-topic; but I have to disagree--wedge shoes are gonna kill me! Something about the narrow, long bottom that makes me more unstable than a stiletto!

    I like the peep toe pumps, but I can't really wear shoes that are very strappy like the rest--I broke my foot when I was little and those straps always seem to make my feet cry!

  48. " snaillady2 said...

    Same here. I think I abused my little feet when I was younger cause now I can't wear strappy shoes for longer then like 2 hrs without major blisters kicking in!

    ReplyDelete
  49. I love peep toe pumps! They are really beautiful. I would buy them in a second.

    ReplyDelete
  50. I am sure he will do well. He knows his target audience.

    ReplyDelete
  51. Ok, I LOVE the peep-toes.

    The rest...

    Well, it's like his PR collection. Some are fabulous and could be worn by nearly anyone, some are purely pageant.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Good Gracious! I've seen less vicious comments on the Michael Vick boards!
    These shoes are beautiful, and I'd be proud to wear any of them.
    May she rest in peace, but have you seen anything by Liz Claiborne? MANLY shoes.
    These are pretty and feminine.
    If you're a girl, you'll understand.

  53. Roxy Said:

    "Kayne, honey, why don't you wear a pair for a few hours. Then you might lower the heels on these puppies."

    Are you implying that there is even a possibility that Kayne didn't try out every pair of these?

    Nonsense.

    You know he modeled every pair of these while designing them. in fact, he's got to be walking around his place in a pair of these right now, or my world might just shatter.

    ReplyDelete
  54. I love all of these shoes! I guess there's a pageant or stripper in me that wants to get out. Some of these would look less, um, racy if the heels weren't so high.
