Gabriel Dishaw creates these crazy sculptural shoes from discarded materials such as glass, scrap metal, plastic and wood. The site itself needs a little help, but these shoes are pretty insane.

Unhealthy Obsessions and Their Benefits
Although my obsession with shoes is borderline excessive, I most often spare my readers when I come across the newest designer dunks or snakeskin Air Force Ones. I realize that my shoe fetish is ridiculous to most reasonable people, however, I couldn't resist posting about the newest limited-edition Nike release.
The Nike Clot Air Force One comes in a special ‘Chinese Candy Box’ packaging set. Traditionally, Lunar New Year celebrations include offering sweets and other edible treats from a red lacquer box to ensure a ’sweet’ year. Honoring this custom, the Nike Clot Air Force 1 packaging is a hexagonal red box with a partitioned tray layer, to hold shoe accessories, and matching lid. The box’s exterior is adorned with Clot graphics in black.

Frankenstein Want New Kicks
As you know from previous posts, I have a bit of a shoe fetish. Not in a sexual way, but almost. Luckily (or not, depending how you look at it) I wear a size 16, which tends to limit my purchases to the odd clearance rack find.
My new favorites are these, available soon from RoyaleFam. Featuring black denim and leather, faux snakeskin (or is it real??) and a small bit of red, green and cream trim, they're just different enough to look custom without the usual over-the-top ridiculous color and texture of many custom shoes.
My bet is that they won't make these in Mutant sizes, but in the unlikely chance that they do, I'll be willing to pack my lunch for a few weeks to be able to afford them.
