What the Shoe?

This Carin Wester Marbella Ankle Boot ($403 at Urban Outfitters) is freakin' awesome, yet slightly repulsive. I don't know whether to jump for my credit card or start rubbing my eyes because it's possible my mind is playing a trick on me. Is this a rubber shoe? I think it is. It could also, quit possibly, be leather? Yes, it is indeed. Okay, I'm still a little confused but I don't care because this shoe is more than just leather-and aparently rubber-on a wedge..it's a piece of art. Love it... I've been starring at it for the past 10 minutes and I'm not bored yet. Excellent.
