These “shoelace piercings” were done by Rick N. Toms at East Coast Tattoos in Thurmont, MD — I recently got this same thing as a photoshop job by Kell of Pugatch‘s feet, so the timing on the real ones was great!

- Held by Hooks, and Each Otherby JonathonFacilitators and practitioners — the very people who bring so many suspensions to life — often pour their energy into others, quietly setting aside their own opportunities. Brenton and Brittany are one such example. Traveling all the way from Houston, TX, they came to the… Read more: Held by Hooks, and Each Other
- When Tongue Piercings Meet Medicineby Coin-coin le CanapinIn 2010, a German study was published involving subjects with tongue piercings. The tongue piercing was used as part of a device designed to relieve obstructive sleep apnea. Obstructive sleep apnea is a disorder affecting many individuals. Severely affected individuals may suffer from various long-term… Read more: When Tongue Piercings Meet Medicine
- Suspended, Not Silencedby JonathonThere’s something undeniably powerful about watching someone working through the stages of suspension. We all build up ideas about ourselves—what we’re allowed to feel, how much we’re allowed to express, when it’s okay to break. For some, suspension is not about pushing physical limits its… Read more: Suspended, Not Silenced
- A Nightbird’s Passageby JonathonSome stories take their time, unfolding over decades, through life’s long detours and diversions. But dreams never rest until they’re fully realized. Even after 15 years, Robb knew there was still a suspension experience waiting for him. Something left unfinished, something essential. At the Ontario… Read more: A Nightbird’s Passage
- What Lifts the Body, Shifts the Soulby JonathonFirst suspensions are rarely just about the body—they’re a meeting point between the physical and the deeply personal. Stepping into this experience isn’t simply about trying something new, but about stepping outside yourself to a version you had always sensed was waiting. I’ve had a… Read more: What Lifts the Body, Shifts the Soul
- Skin and Strings: The Art of Human Puppetryby JonathonOne of the most powerful things about being at a convention like OSC is the sheer concentration of experience, creativity, and capability in one place. When you’re surrounded by people who not only understand the technical complexities of suspension but are excited by the challenge… Read more: Skin and Strings: The Art of Human Puppetry

I’m fairly sure this is intended to be temporary fun.

1 – I took it to be play piercing. How would you go about your daily shoe-wearing life with something like this in a healing stage? Besides, most corset piercings have CBRs, this is a corset piercing on the foot, and very very few people want something like that to stay.
Also, clever! I enjoyed this post.

That doesn’t look like it was done in a tattoo studio (though I guess he may have gone home with them in).
What does his shirt say?

surely he could wear flip flops/thongs while they heal/until they reject?

I love piercings.. but feet in general are gross. Good fun; I do like the “poor man’s shoes” comment, very funny. However, I wish I could go back in time 2 minutes and unsee this… feet are gross.

I think mayhaps the shirt says ‘Fast Times Attached’ but that last word is a bit vague.. I’m hoping his feet are swollen so they arnt naturally that way inclined.

GAAHH. that musta hurt like a sonofabitch. People seem to be quite tortured with simple blood test and I.V. insertions on feet, I can’t image have those done. Yeeouch.
Looks really cool though! I’d love to see the the whole knee-high boot lacing look too!

I just found this when searching the web. I never realized that this got posted on here. It was in fact done at a shop, I did them on myself near the end of the day. I however realized that I left my camera at home and wanted to show my wife. So I left them in for the short drive home and took the pictures when I got home. However it was not possible to get a good picture due to the fact that by standing, these piercings had a lot of stress on them and got alot of redness and bleeding during the short drive home. As soon as these pictures were taken the CBRs were removed because I understood they were only temporary. My shirt does indeed say Fast Times Attached. Its the title of a song by the band The Heart Attacks.
