Looks like Martin Margiela has decided to put his money where his, uh, shoes are.
Now, it's probably fair to say that these shoes will get you a lot of attention, which is presumably the whole idea: well, that and the fact that you get to make an ironic point about designer fashion and status symbols, perhaps?
If you live anywhere near the Fashion Police HQ, however, it's probably ALSO true to say that these shoes will possibly get you mugged: the people round here just aren't that into ironic dressing, if you know what we mean.
If that's a risk you're willing to take, you can purchase these for yourself at Yoox.com, in red or grey. And although they come with great wads of (fake) cash attached to them, they actually only cost a relatively modest £142 on sale.

kinda cheeky
Why is the fold of the money pointed up on one shoe and down on the other?
Oooh you could have some fun with these babies!
tacky.
Tacky.
TACKY.
It will be like that Sex and the City scene – with Carrie and her Manolo mugging
Hideous. What’s next, fake bits of loo paper stuck to the heel?
