Update: Lady Gaga Shoes Sell Out: Celebrities and Shoes: The Wacky and Inspiring Shoe Choices of Lady Gaga

Despite being wacky and difficult to walk in, replicas of Lady Gaga’s heel-less shoes have sold out.

 Noritaka Tatehana, a Japanese designer, created the original shoes. He became famous as fans clamored to get their hands on a pair. However, the $2,500 to $4,800 price tag was too expensive for most (CocoPerez, April 2011 and Lomrantz, April 2011).

Recently, a knock-off version was created, Magic Leopard Platforms available at Nasty Girl for $118. While, that’s still pricey it’s a lot cheaper than $4,800. The shoes are completely sold out now.

Other knock-offs are probably in the works.

What do you think? Would you buy a pair?
