Spats have made a comeback thanks to the Steampunk trend. Here are my 2 favorite Spat makers, Ashes & Empires ( the gothy ones) and  German designer, Maide (the Victorian ones). Spats are a great way to cover your cankle or disguise your fugliest shoes. I dig that. I was doing some intense research ( I googled ’spats’) and found that they are still worn in the military around the world. I also found that molten metal pourers wear spats to keep the hot, liquid metal off their feet. My intense research also found that Johnny Depp in Benny and Joon wore them, as well. With those three pieces of information, there’s a joke in there somewhere… I just can’t find it right now.

So, I found these on a German website, I couldn’t get who designed these, but let’s pretend Satan designed these. Now, I wonder who’s fur is on there. Knowing Satan , it’s probably a cute, cuddly kitten like these

No, let’s not speculum, I mean speculate. These could belong to Narnia dude. So, who would wear these? I’ve compiled a list:

Sarah Pailin

Satan

Dick Cheney

Lucifer

The guy who invented taxes

Devil 

Allen Gant Senior, Inventor of the Pantyhose

Demon

Health Insurance Companies in the US

Diablo

Having said that , I wonder if they come in my size? Kidding! ….. or maybe not!
