spats? spats!

I think they’re kind of magical.  They turn shoes into boots.  Pretty, colourful, dramatic boots.  Those are my favourite kind.  Though I haven’t seen anybody in my city sporting them, there does seem to be a trend toward their revival though I daresay it’s probably limited to the really rock ‘n roll among us.  Someday I’ll make myself a pair.  I’m not equipped with the skills to make as clever a pair as the ones in the picture, but I’ll figure something out.

Would any of you wear spats?  What are your thoughts?
