Images of SWIMS City Slippers have been, well, floating around the blogs for several months now.  Above is the latest image the Norwegian galoshes manufacturer has to offer.  It’s basically a little water-resistant condom to protect your fancy shoes from puddle splashes.

Unfortunately, the cover does not protect your delicate heel or bottom of your shoe at all.  Oh, and it makes your foot look stupid.

The City Slippers are apparently still in the prototype stage, and not yet ready for retail, and I think we can see why.
