Shoes Of The Day

These banana shoes rock! One of our faithful readers sent me some amazing pics of these banana shoes for your feet. (Thanks DW) Typically you don’t want to see bananas or peels anywhere near your shoes, but these offer style, stability and dunk-ability (even if you’re not in the South Bronx.) Get some extra potassium in your step with these “K”icks!

Here is a list of the shoe’s highlights:

• Limited edition collaboration with Osiris and Consolidated Skateboards.
  Leather and patent leather uppers.
  Hi top design.
  Double stitched toe box.
  Perforated side panel.
  Signature Consolidated banana logo.
  Logo hit at heel.
  Cupsole construction.
  Rubber outsole for traction.
  15.00 oz.

Enjoy the almost edible shoes of the day, Osiris South Bronx Dunk!

What is the Verb For Shoe? For four years Ron Demon, an MIT grad, has been working on the Verb For Shoe “smartshoe” and this month he is taking pre-orders. Each Verb For Shoe product is custom made to order and must pass a rigorous inspection. Expect your shipment in 10-14 days. But wait there’s more…this shoe also has an “engine.” It even comes with built-in airbags for your feet. The footwear features an insole computer which will adjust the level of support in your shoes depending on what you are doing - this feature is called “Auto Comfort” The shoes sense when you are walking, the bladders adjust and become softer. The shoes sense when you are running and the bladders will adjust and become firmer. The Verb for Shoes also come with a social networking component - you can share your personal information “wirelessly” with other Verb Shoe wearers. Shoes of the day: Verb For Shoe.

If I’m going to drop 7 Benjamin’s on a pair of shoes, they are going to go on their own.

The only time shoes are bad for your feet is when they look like this! If your feet look like this furry pair of wing-tips, get some new shoes on quick!

Get your feet back on the right track with these new shoes of the day: The Piloti Prototipos Driving Shoes.

Great article, great shoes, you can find it all here. “You’ve treated your sports car to a top-notch set of tires. The engine is freshly tuned and bathed in the finest motor oil you can buy. And now you’re climbing aboard for a drive…wearing that ratty old pair of tennis shoes? Puh-leeze. If you’re serious about your driving — especially if you own a car with a manual transmission — you need superior equipment on your busy feet. That means a proper pair of driving shoes.

These new Piloti Prototipos are among the best I’ve tried. Developed by Kevin A. Beard, graduate of the famed Art Center college in Pasadena (training ground for many of the world’s top auto stylists) and former designer for Adidas, Reebok, and K-Swiss, the Pilotis are true thoroughbreds, shoes specifically crafted with the needs of driving enthusiasts in mind.” — Source to Arthur St. Antoine 

These are the ShoesOfTheDay….probably for the entire month of April. Amazing.  Thanks Treehugger!

The Shoe System is down

I don’t know about you, but I have never been worried that the soles of my feet would ever be cold. Well, here’s a pair of phurry phlip-phlops for all you cold souls. I would love your thoughts on the schizophrenic “I-cant-decide-if –I-am-in-Alaska-or-Hawaii” shoes of the day. The Bonsai; not sure if we’re flying north or south for the winter - after all, it is spring! We like these!
