one thing i remember from my barbie owning days was all the plastic boots and shoes they had. when walking around the village window shoping i found the above shoes which are an adult equivilant to barbie's plastic ones.
sort of a designer variation of the jelly shoes, these are much more slick and come in a range of colours but apparently limited standard sizes at the shop otherwise i would of snaped up a pair.

and looking at the slide show here it seems like ankle length boots are the next step in his collection.

being a bit (well alot) of a material fetishist, i did really like the soft plastic vinyl they were made from and this gave me the idea, well maybe much longer boots - thigh length could be made.
or maybe even a full mannequin shape to be cast and the could be worn....

i've been obsessing over these shoes and boots for the last day now. i really need to get a pair. they also do the heel-less versions as well.

after some emails back and forth to australia it seems the shoes are based on a south american type of plastic shoes. various designers have worked with the orginal company to make new designs.
