World's most expensive shoes







"Made from solid gold and 2200 diamonds, these shoes don’t mess around when they vie for the title of the most expensive shoes ever. The 2200 diamonds totalling to 30 carats are all personally selected highly polished diamonds.
Designed by British jewellery designer Christopher Michael Shellis, the shoes may just be a tad too expensive for even those with deep pockets at 228,000$ since not a single pair has been sold despite being on display since 5 months.
The shoes took nearly three years to design since neither gold nor diamonds are great materials for shoe making. But those are the only ingredients used in this footwear. Temperatures of more than 1000 degrees Celsius are required to put together these shoes in the perfect form."
Wonder if walking on gold feels better than walking on air?
