Tecnica Moon Boots?

I know fashion is "out there," but this is just crazy.  Who knew moon boots would be making a comeback? Well, maybe they won't be making a comeback if everyone else has the same opinion as I do.  I cannot stand them...thankfully, I've never actually seen anyone in them; I've only seen them in ads.  Who would wear them in public, let alone your own house?  I first saw the outrageous Tecnica boots in the winter 2011 Nordstrom magazine, but I can't for the life of me find the magazine.  Even the girls in the ad looked like they didn't want to be wearing them.  They just looked so clunky and huge--and they definitely don't match anything.  Another thing that shocked me about the boots was their price: $139.99 for the boots pictured below.  (The ad from Nordstrom's website is similar to the one in the magazine.)

I just think the price is a little too much for what you're actually getting--a clunky, shiny boot with tassles...yuck.  Let's just hope I don't see anyone around St. Louis sporting these crazy moon boots!
