Do you know what this decade had a lot of? Ugly shoes. But they're not just ugly. As the unattractiveness level of the shoe grows, so too does their popularity. I present my list of the ugliest, and inexplicably popular shoes of the 2000s.

Crocs

They come in bright colors. They're easy to clean. But, damn! are they ugly! It doesn't matter how many little decorations you sitck into the holes of these plastic, gawdy, garden clogs, because they are still unattractive. I know that anyone who wears these things already doesn't care about what others think, but seriously they're not cute, and they make you look like you have cankles.

Uggs

At least these shoes are appropriately named. Now unless you reside in Siberia, there is no reason for going around wearing these ridiculously warm and furry boots, especially if your place of residence is Southern California. Though you think they look great paired with those daisy duke cut-off jeans, they don't. When will this trend die?

Flip-Flops/ Thongs/ Whatever the Hell you want to call them

Unless you're at the beach, the pool, or your gym showers, don't wear them, they are not shoes! They DO NOT look good with your office clothes, your business suit, or your wedding dress. Flip-flops is one of the tackiest trends of this decade and it doesn't seem to be going away any time soon, despite the damage these disposable sandals are causing to millions of feet. Enough already!!

Toe-less Boots

OK, toeless boots are straight up ugly. Aside from the way they look(ugly) they tend to be heavy in the belts, buckles, tassles, fringe, studs, and other "embelishments" making them quite tasteless. But I suppose if you live in hot climate, and don't want to cook your feet inside a pair of leather boots, this is a probably a good option(I'm talking to you, Ugg-wearing-girl in hot pants).

Ultra High Heels

Because nothing says chic like hooker shoes. And nothing will break your ankles faster. Seriously, I'm all for a sexy shoe that makes your legs look long and your ass stick out, but when walking becomes a hazard, I draw the line! The high heel is one of those trends that comes and goes. When women get fed up with being objectified(again) combat boots will be in(again) and high heels will go back to the drag shows and the street corners, where they belong.
