Besides looking trendy, this shoe design is the ultimate weapon in self-defense/offense for women, especially those with vicious tendencies towards men.

Though the spikes on the tips of these shoes look quite menacing, they probably aren’t very useful in actual combat. For that, you’re better off learning karate or carrying mace.

However, wear these shoes and they’re likely to act as a deterrence to those unwanted advances by geeky guys.

What would make these even more useful is if the spikes appeared only when required. Maybe controlled wirelessly through your earring.

A friend of mine once had a shoulder bag with some pretty scary spikes coming out of it. It was only on close inspection that their rubbery truth became apparent.
