Louboutin has been around since the early '90s. He definitely has the cred to do whatever sort of shoe he wants. As far as I recall his shoes have had red soles since around that time so it's nothing new. These shoes are OK but I've seen sexier, and yes, a model would have been helpful.

I'm a shoe horse and own a few pairs of Louboutins. While I love how they look, I find the quality lacking. The red sole is sexy, but the bottom wears off quickly. I have a pair embellished with crystals and a few of them fell out rather easily. No, I wasn't hiking or doing some wild dancing in them. That said, I wouldn't pay $2445 for the Maralena stilettos. My Hermes shoes might not be as hot and sexy, but the quality is to topnotch. For subtle whimsy, I turn to Chanel.

This would be better with them modeled some shoes look OK but look amazing on. These look tacky to me.

I didn't vote because there should be some choices in between hot and tacky. They're just okay. But if they wanted to illustrate how sexy the shoe is, shouldn't it be modeled with someone's foot and leg in it?

All of Louboutin's shoes have the red sole; it's how you know they're Louboutins!

Give it a few months. Others will put on a red sole. Here in east Europe, we'll have Lubatins with a red sole by Christmas.
