CREEPers (and other things with thick soles)

So I'm curious, is a creeper the generic term for a shoe/boot with a platform-ish sole?

It's short for "brothel creeper" which has a double meaning. It's a play on the crepe sole of army-issued desert boots. As the story goes, British WW2 veterans would "creep" brothels in their crepe-soled boots when they returned to London after the war.

^nice pickup!

also, thinking about picking these up (pretty cheap). keeping it simple and classic. I was gonna get ones of leopard print on the top area but i think they'd be harder to rock with more stuff.
