New from the secret underground factory of Wagster Industries come... BIG SHOES! Made out of foam and reinforced with lightweight sprung steel, these shoes are each five feet long by two feet wide, but concealed within them are a pair of the comfiest, snuggiest trainers you have ever worn.
No more
shall you be crowded on station platforms - BIG SHOES will force people to stand at least two feet away from you at all times. Be the only person with elbow room on the underground - anyone attempting to stand upon your BIG SHOES will merely slide off the internal steel skeleton! Never again do you have to wonder if the person behind you is watching you enter your PIN while they breathe down your neck - BIG SHOES will keep them back. Buy BIG SHOES today and enjoy the space that is rightfully yours!
Wagster Industries is not responsible for any loss of street cred brought about by the wearing or use of BIG SHOES.

Not quite [gnome], but definitely heading in the right direction. |
|
| |
So, like clown shoes but even more
impractical. |
|
| |
These could prove to be useful whilst on holiday, double them up as swimming pool spring boards for the kids. |
|
| |
may I have the next dance, wags? |
|
| |
With pleasure [po]. I presume you have your snowshoes? |
|
| |
[skinflaps] - That's pretty much exactly what I wanted my illustration to look like before I realised that I wasn't going to do it. |
|
| |
Excuse me, you're standing on my foot.
So what? |
|
| |
(What I imagine a typical London Underground BIG SHOES scenario to be.) |
|
| |
more likely to be: "Excuse me, your foot's
standing on me." |
|
| |
Ah - I'm talking about BIG SHOE being used as the subway population's doormat... |
|
| |
...and you know what they say about a guy with big shoes. |
|
| |
//Be the only person with elbow room on the underground //
'Cos you are the only one who can't get into the train... |
|
| |
Cool. Now all you need is a circus theme tune and a 'HONK HONK' when you want to pass someone. |
|
| |
To get on a crowded train or bus - you need to have the smallest footprint you can. |
|
| |
Maybe you can amuse people trying to lift your big shoes when out walking. After half an hour of hard walking even the lightest shoes begin to feel like lead. |
|
| |
Well... You know what they say about //Big Shoes//? |
|
| |
That's right... Big feet. |
|
| |
links sure expire quick. Out of six five just disappear. |
|
| |
They don't make them like they used to. |
|
| |
Alternatively, the HB telluric currents have eroded the bases of the links, so they no longer point in exactly the right direction.... |
|
| |
Ok, I'll stop going on about them.. |
|
| |
Seconded. But, alas, he has escaped to the real world where
he is working diligently. |
|
| |
You mean none of this is real? |
