Buscemi, the luxury brand most often associated with expensive hightop sneakers, will soon be the luxury brand associated with expensive slippers, once the Jon Buscemi leather slip-on sandals drop off the foot and onto store floors.

Their designs are always playful but undoubtedly top notch — much like those Hookers’ Delight Martini glasses, you know we loved those. Well now […]

The Hermes sneaker
As can be expected by his past shoes for his Adidas Originals by Originals Collection, Jeremy Scott’s latest creation continues the over-the-top aesthetics for Fall/Winter 2010. The new Leather Wings 2.0 white and black high top sneakers feature exaggerated Hermes-like (the god, not the luxury brand) wings that flare from the heel (instead of, say, […]
