If we didn’t already have an image of Dorothy’s red ruby slippers ingrained in our minds, I would imagine that this is what they look like:
United Nude Lo Res Pumps at Amazon
The shoes would be cut like a real ruby is cut and they would also sparkle, shine and glitter like the actual precious stone.
Of course, that would probably make the shoes really, really, really uncomfortable. These red pumps from United Nude are only made of rubber but the reviews on them say that the angles already dig into the feet.
Imagine what real rubies on your feet would feel like. They’d probably be really pretty but I wouldn’t even dare stand up!
These United Nude pumps also convert into a cute Mary Jane style:
The strap connects via a metal ball located underneath the shoe. The heel itself is approximately 3 1/2 inches while the hidden platform in the instep is approximately half an inch.
Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz would totally love this ruby red color, but if they made a clear version of these, then I imagine that the glass-slipper-loving Cinderella would suddenly be very interested … !
