“We sell lots of cutting edge, original items, but this one takes the cake for feel, look and inventiveness. It speaks well of our image that the manufacturer, Pioneer Products, hit us up to distribute this bizarre and beautiful toy,” Stockroom buyer Chris Kalev said.
The Pussy Foot is molded from a size six foot and designed with a realistic vagina in the sole that can be used as a stroker or for other fetish play.
The feet retail for $105 each on Stockroom’s retail site. According to Stockroom, the left foot is more popular with consumers.
The toy is made from 100 percent nontoxic silicone with realistic acrylic toenails that have been painted a glossy pink. From toe to heel, it measures 9 inches. The ankle is 2 ½ inches in diameter and the vagina is 6 ½ inches deep. The silicone has been realistically colored to resemble natural flesh tones.
According to Stockroom Marketing Assistant Christine Berry, the manufacturer conducted 40 model auditions until finding a college coed whose feet were used to mold the Pussy Foot prototype.
“I think it’s definitely serving a niche market, but as far as these things go, the quality is exceptional. As far as a foot fetish product, for someone who is into foot fetish, there hasn’t been a product that’s as satisfying on a visceral level as this one,” Berry said.
Earlier this year, Stockroom Marketing Director Juli Crockett launched a hilarious, one-of-a-kind “actual customer letter” ad campaign in “The Onion,” and used using various affiliate sites to create a viral buzz about the product.
“We chose The Onion because we seek to bridge the gap between alternative and mainstream,” Crockett said. “Not to take the edge off of what we do, but to uplift freedom of sexual expression. As kink pops up more frequently in fashion, films and on television, we feel it is our duty to broadcast an accessible, sex-positive message that has a long reach.”
“There was this viral marketing explosion with it. We’ve been blogged everywhere. It’s been turning up in all kinds of place, I think because it’s just so dramatic,” Berry said.
