I know what stink you mean.  I generally think of it as "boot foot."  I _did_ 
have a pair of Skechers cause that at one point.  It was the year that 
_everybody_ was wearing Teva sandals, and every company was making their own 
knockoffs.  Skechers had their version, and that black rubbery stuff that 
connects with the bottom of your foot...it just _reeks_ when you take the 
sandals off!

I never cared for those (I'm assuming stilettos), but I'm a sucker for 
platformy, big clunky heels.  I need a little height. <g>
