Not gonna lie, I cringe a little bit when I see these auctions selling boots. Now, I can understand selling a guitar, I don't get selling an autographed guitar because you don't have a connection and exchange of obtaining the signature, but signed boots?? I wonder what winners are going to do with these. Wear 'em themselves, put them under a glass display, or give them away? And why did Mark sign them right over the leather anyway? The first time he signed the soles, which makes a little bit more sense. So many questions, so few answers.

All for charity, all for good deeds. But I can see Daniel Craig's Shoes went for just £420, probably 4-5 times less than they cost in a store. Go figure.

Maybe are you taking things a bit too heartly ?

Well, I sure do. It's a no-brainer to do a little charity thing of selling some shoes, it's nothing for Mark and has an effect, but the questions I proposed are still relevant.

Would you buy a celebrity-worn shoes? I would not... A lot of people (not a lot judging by shockingly ultra-low selling prices) apparently would, so good for them.

They raised almost half a million pounds selling these, so I'm not criticising the cause, just questioning the items and idea itself a little bit. No worries.

It's called "Small Steps Project", so there is the idea of shoes, it's just a way of making it original and unique with a symbolic gesture. Plus a good pair of shoes, as normal as it might seem for all of us, even one single pair, is something that many poor children not have, so it is a good picture for pointing out on poverty. It's not so weird as it might seem on the first sight.

I was thinking 2015.  Maybe he's had them for a few years.

I would not buy it either but if you did not ask me I would never felt the need to speak on it.

There is of course a part of worship in it but we all have our own part of worship.

If I was rich enough I would battle hard to get the MFN LP mine and this is 1000% worship.  This is a seldom time in my life I really whished I was multi millionaire!

Success in the cards. That sounds like something John Illsley could have come up with.

Success in the cards.
But so many shards.
I am feeling blue.

regarding their clothes, its seems to be the same photoshoot as the one used for the back cover of the first album
