Texas based footwear designer Omar Angel Perez certainly takes his badass cowboy roots to extremes with these sizzling pumps, which are coined “My Shoes Are Killing Me.” It’s about time a designer took a play on this concept!

Our high heels seem to always straight-up murder both our feet and our bank accounts, so why not create a design that represents this so cleverly? Finished in come-hither red, the highest of high platform with the spikiest heel around, the “My Shoes Are Killing Me” stilettos combine all the dangerous elements of footwear into one artistic display. — RACHEL SUTTON
