You can write about shoes as often as you write about any other fashion trend. Designers are very fond of inventing something new. Although sometimes they come up with such incomprehensible and strange things that one wonders how they even come up with such ideas ?!
This is how you can describe this shoe, which was invented by designer Julian Hakes. Although for the word "shoes" this concept lacks a couple of very important things. Looking at such an invention, we might think that it is - as a last resort, a spoon for shoes or, in general, some kind of tape, but not shoes. However, before us are women's shoes. The Londoner portrayed them like that for a reason, and he plans that they will be produced, albeit in a single copy. It is worth mentioning why the designer chose this particular shoe shape. The fact is that he specially studied this issue. He writes that "one day he was walking along the beach and noticed the footprints in the sand, from looking at them he realized that the main emphasis while walking is on the heel and the pads of the toes."
No, it cannot be called a discovery, but it helped the designer a lot in creating shoes. It was after this conclusion that he came to the conclusion that the shoe should only have a toe (just for the toes) and the back part for the heel. In the middle is emptiness. It immediately becomes clear that no one will walk down the street in such shoes, because there is nothing between the front and the back, and the foot will step on the asphalt! Unless you walk on the beach in just such shoes and only … It is not surprising that the shoes will be released in a single copy. Although it has one advantage, which the designer did not forget to mention. As we can see, the shoes have not only the sole, but also the upper part - so it envelops the foot as if it was created for it to order. This can be really convenient!
