YSL Caged BootsThere are so mannny ‘inspired’ pieces of the YSL caged boots, which is by the way, sold out! These boots were first featured in their Spring 2009 collection, but almost a year later, it’s still popular! I found a pair that is quite decent and the price is quite decent as well! This pair is by Miss Sixty and it’s the “wedge” version of the YSL caged boots and at a fraction of the cost.
Differences: YSL caged boots are made out of metal wireframes while the Miss Sixty ones are made out of leather. Also, as mentioned before, the Miss Sixty has a wooden wedge while the heel on the YSL ones are completely made out of wires. Similarities:They both are “peep” toe shoes where you can see the toes and they also have zippers on the back. And of course the biggest similarity is that they are “caged” looking! Although I really admire the YSL caged boots, the Miss Sixty ones are more wearable. But then again, I may be biased because I love wedges. You can purchase these Miss Sixty ones at your local Urban Outfitters! They come in both black and beige. (By the way, it’s on sale for $129.99!!)
Do you like these shoes?

whoa…interesting design…i don’t know if i’d pay that much for a pair though..
guest
if they had them in pastel pink, I’d probably buy them
guest
They’re interesting, but I don’t think they’re attractive enough to pay that much money for them. Moreover, they seem like they’d be insanely uncomfortable.
guest
I’d be too paranoid of the wires cutting into my feet and slicing them. =/

Nope. The original looks completely uncomfortable, and either way both of them look ridiculous to me. :/
