Default Cheap shoes you actually like

I'm someone who has both Pleasers and Louboutins in my collection, and someone who buys shoes from New Look to Yves Saint Laurent and anywhere in between.

Nothing compares to my Louboutins and YSLs, but there is always a place in my collection for the cheap and cheerfuls like New Look and Pleasers, but recently I have seen people complain about both of these brands.

So, to those people, are there any cheap (say, under £60) shoes you like?

And what is so bad about cheap shoes? I think they're great 'filler shoes' giving me a variety of shoes to wear out and match with my outfits on a budget (meaning I do have the money to buy the occassional £400+ pair). It also means if I have a 'heavy' night out I can go out and not care so much about damaging my shoes.

Of course cheap shoes aren't as good as expensive ones but I think there's a place for them.

Be kind!

Cheap shoes can certainly look nice and have cool designs, but I can't really stand my feet getting sweaty in plastic shoes. It has to be leather, and that makes the price go up. It doesn't nessecerily have to be fancy designer brand shoes, but definatly somewhere between "cheap" and "luxury".

I bought a pair of Sergant ancle boots, 4" block heel on ebay. They cost 30 usd or so.
The most comfortable heels I ever had..I have been out in the dark many times with those and I like to wear them when I drive my car.

Loving Pleasers myself, I also have a few pairs of Anne Michelle's, which are definately cheap. A couple fit nice, and are fairly comfortable, one pair is about as comfortable as walking on marbles barefoot. But, all look nice.

Default Re: Cheap shoes you actually like

All shoes I've bought for myself so far have been quite cheap (max $50 or so), as I know that I won't use them very often anyway.

Default Re: Cheap shoes you actually like

Being someone who only wears them part time, and still needs to have a complete men's wardrobe, I have to limit myself to the cheaper shoes, sometimes I do buy some nicer shoes, and even a couple used shoes (via ebay).

I can now understand why women can spend huge amounts of money on shoes now that I have grown my collection into the double digits. Trying to remember what I have while I am not at home...

Low end:
4 pairs from Pleaser (including the pair shown in my avatar)

Mid-range (low end to many of you) :
4 Steve Madden
Others include Kenneth Cole, Nine West, Bebe, and Coach

Upper-range (probably still pretty low end to many of you ) :
1 each from Via Spiga, Stuart Weitzman, Michael Kors, and Cole Haan

Your "real" upper-range:
0

What can I say I am a cheap guy with a fetish, not a fashion guru

If more brands came in size 13w/14, I'd definitely buy those. Right now, Pleasers, Fioni (Payless), JK Fashions (sexyshoes.com), and J. Renee do quite well for me.

got some nice 4" black leather heels from asda for £12
Very comfortable for everday. Not high style for going out, but good enough for cleaning the flat, doing the allotment, going down the shop etc.
