Pirelli Boots

Not so long ago, fitting a new set of tyres was referred to colloquially as “fitting new boots”.

Now it’s for real.

Pirelli have launched a fashion line of ladies boots based on their PZero line of tyres!

The “Gum Collection” of high heeled shoes includes dual tone rain boots, low cut shoes, passe-partout boots, and 8 cm high lace up half-boots..Wow!

These shoes offer soles based on the P-Lunga tyre, providing what Pirelli calls a “fusion of femininity and comfort”. Good tread pattern too!

But the colours are truly awesome. Can you imagine the ladies in industrial grey and anthracite ( read jet black); petrol and tyre black (???); bordeaux, and yellow.

That’s what is called “drawing a long bow” in the fashion industry. It just leaves us tyre blokes gobsmacked.
