badass gladiators

I got these in brown coz shoeflake was offering it at $30 but I really wanted them in black (awww!)
Anyway the leather was thick and the design looks really great. My only complaint is that they are quite tight and can get uncomfortable (even painful) after a while. The round metallic holes & the straps tend to dig in to the upper portion of the feet. These might be more suitable for people with slim feet (unfortunately mine arent). The only adjustable strap is the one with the buckle which is shown in the pic and there's another strap above the ankle with an elastic portion. Since they're made with real leather I'm hoping they would stretch over time. Beautiful glads nonetheless.More detail ...
