Customer Reviews

Hilarious and perceptive

This book is both hilarious, and frightenly accurate.Us guys have always heard women judge men by their shoes , but this woman is a 'shoevoyant' !With uncanny accuracy she evaluates typical male shoes and reveals the personality and foibles of the men who wear them.Kathryn Eisman is the Nostradamus of shoes !A wonderful, entertaining, delightful read.

Men exposed and raw

Until now we boys had all types of shields from exposure -- underpants, condoms, hats, balaclavas, suncreams and so on. But girls knew about these things so we did not get away with much. Nothing like they get away with with makeup, lift up and hold apart bras (or no bras at all), no nickers (or no nickers nickers), thongs (or no thongs) etc!!Now all we had left is revealed by this book -- our shoes. We previously thought that our charisma, bed prowess, interest in particular things or activities, as demonstrated by what we put on our feet, was a secret known only by and to us. Alas, no longer! Although beautifully written, and powerfully illustrated, with tongue firmly planted in cheek (the facial one), this book has actually exposed us in the raw. It is so funny, yet so true. And the author has so cleverly fingered us for what we really are -- conniving, sinister, manipulative little so and so's who, unlike women with plunging necklines, bits or butts hanging out, or the shortest skirts or briefest shorts revealing everything except the little they cover, had hoped that our secrets were well tucked away, out of sight, mind, mouth and hand, if not imagination.Now that Kathryn has destroyed that image with this great little book about how our footwear actually reveals all to all, where do we go now? Hopefully, her next book will not be about jocks, sox or box!! If it is, be ready for men to disappear from city streets altogether so that you girls will have to come looking for us instead of the other way round.

I wish I'd found this book years ago!

This book is so accurate and witty! I mean not only is it extremely funny, 'How to Tell a Man by His Shoes' is spot on when it comes to judging mens personalities. I was given it as a gift and now I've gone out and bought it for all my girlfriends for Christmas. I've started using the book and I have been attracting a much better type of man...WHY DIDN'T SOMEBODY WRITE THIS BOOK YEARS AGO AND SAVE ME ALOT OF MISTAKES!!! Ha ha. A fun read and a delicious present.
