British jewelery designer Christopher Michael Shellis has made the most expensive shoes in the world; a pair of heels loaded with 2,200 diamonds and solid gold, at the astronomical price of 140, 000 GBP (or about $228, 000 USD).
Having been on sale for 5 months now, this pair of Christopher Michael Shellis heels has yet to be purchased by anyone, with an expected audience of those that are out of their minds and/or obscenely rich.
Meanwhile, the most expensive shoes in the world will be on temporary display at the Mailbox Exhibition in Birmingham for those that want to know what shoes the price of a sports car looks like. Though they may be expensive and opulent, the shoes must not feature the most comfy step--I mean, gold can't be soft.
