"Remember those totally wild heel-less shoes Lady Gaga was spotted wearing absolutely everywhere for a while? The ones that made her into a literal a fashion victim when she bit it at Heathrow Airport last summer? Apparently she&amp;#x27;s not the only woman on the planet willing to take her life into her hands for the sake of style... The Gaga originals were custom created by Japanese designer Noritaka Tatehana, and as you can imagine, they cost a pretty penny (up to $4,800, in fact). Tatehana once said about the attention he&amp;#x27;s gotten from the pop star, &amp;quot;The hardest part is getting all of these emails from 15 year-old Lady Gaga fans. They tell me they love my shoes but can&amp;amp;#8217;t afford them, so they ask me to just send them a pair. I don&amp;amp;#8217;t know what to say to them.&amp;amp;#8221; So one company answered the prayers of Little Monsters everywhere and created a similarly sculptural shoe called the &amp;quot;Magic Leopard Platform&amp;quot; (above) for $118--and they swiftly sold out! Coco Perez discovered the 8-inch clodhoppers, and the fact that they&amp;#x27;re no longer available at ShopNastyGal.com because they&amp;#x27;ve already been scooped up by...I can only imagine who! They&amp;#x27;re definitely a novelty and I would love to try my hand at walking in them (at least from the privacy of my own living room), but I wonder who the heck is actually wearing these things out in public! Are you gals surprised that they&amp;#x27;re sold out? Would you ever wear a pair? Or do you need to be Lady Gaga herself to pull off something so wild? Discuss!
