If we thought that we could credit Marc Jacobs for perpetuating boots masquerading as another type of shoe, then we stand corrected. A quick look at the online sales page at Barneys revealed several other designers with their own incarnations (well, two of those pictured above are by Jacobs). Through a clever use of leather combined with patent or suede, these boots feature faux sandal, faux pumps or even faux pants detail. Quirky and fun. But are they for everyone?
