日本某网站推出“蹄形凉鞋”

Ever wonder what walking on two hooves must be like? Well, you don’t have to be a faun to try it out, as one Japanese shop is more than happy to sell you a pair of realistic wooden hoof sandals.

你想象过踩着一对牛蹄子走路是什么感觉吗？那个，现在你不必化身半兽人就可以体验这种感觉，因为日本一家商店更乐于向你推销一双逼真的木制“蹄形凉鞋”。
 

Walpurgis, an online shop that seems to specialize in fantastic garments and accessories, recently started selling wooden sandals that closely resemble cow hooves. They are made up of a hoof-shaped platform and a wooden sole, but feature no heel support, which must make walking in them really difficult. But no one ever said being a satyr was easy.

Hooves Sandals are fastened on to the lower leg of the wearer using colored fabric ribbons. The company specifies that these ribbons are very long by default, but can be cut down to size by each wearer, to suit their needs.

Walpurgis has been taking pre-orders on their unique sandals since September 2017, and officially launched them earlier this year.

Even though Hooves Sandals are not exactly cheap, the white and black versions are currently sold out. I guess people like to suffer, or they’re just curious about walking on hooves.
