Remember how gladiator sandals were all the rage last summer? It’s going to be even worse this year. And actually, we like gladiator sandals quite a lot, but when they’ve been turned into slightly creepy, skeletal looking boots, then we think we’ll have to pass.

These are by Jean Paul Gaultier, and are $1425 at eLuxury. We’re thinking that upper leg part might get a little hot and sweaty on warmer days, but mostly we’re just ever so slightly freaked out by the fact that they make us think of skeleton legs.

What’s your verdict?
