Classic shapes, repulsive beauty and stunning creativity in footwear.
Welcome to Shoe Pr0n.
You won't find any dainty strappy numbers, flip flops, or gladiator sandals here. If you think Uggs or Crocs are acceptable forms of footwear, we probably won't get along. There are a million shoe blogs out there, but as this one is curated by me it is obviously going to be full of fabulous things.

Decorating the front of a loafer is old news. Encrusting the back with a massive set of jewels that are so plentiful they have spread to your socks? That’s news.

Fantich and Young. The art duo has made a pair of shoes that create such a visceral viewing experience, I cannot help but shiver every time I see them. Just imagining the feeling of these makes my jaw and spine tingle and I have to shake it off.

GENIUS! When you hand-last a pair of shoes, you pull the leather around the edge of the last and end up with this gathering of excess leather at the bottom. Usually you would trim this off and cement the edges down, but Eric Hullegie made a play on craftsmanship and did something else entirely.
I tip my hat to you sir. Genius!
