Geekologie I Watch Stuff The Superficial

Gum Ain't Classy!: Crazy-Ass High Heels

Kobi Levi is a shoe designer. One who created a pair of high-heels that make it look like you just stepped in gum. Ooh ooh -- do dog shit next!

designer kobi levi specializes in designing unusual footwear that blurs the line between fashion and art. levi graduated from bezalel academy of art & design, jerusalem and has worked as a freelance designer since. he describes his personal shoe creations as 'artistic footwear' making each pair in his studio by hand. 'the shoe is my canvas. the trigger to create a new piece comes when an idea, a concept and/or an image comes to mind. the combination of the image and footwearcreates a new hybrid and the design/concept comes to life. the piece is a wearable sculpture.'

Bro -- you design shoes, there's no reason to get all hoity-toity about it. I write a blog but you don't hear me pontificating about how Geekologie belongs in an art museum and reading its articles has been likened to having your eyeballs sexed by a well endowed angel (possibly Samson). Do I? I don't. But f*** that sounded good -- I might start.

Hit the jump for several more and a link to even more (including a really dirty one!) if you're into fancy footwear.

    This is a pair of single spiral high heel (that's kind of similar to this thing) from designer Julian Hakes. It looks like something you'd see in a cheesy futuristic movie. It's not though, it's a real shoe and you can buy them in a bunch of different colors for around $205. ... / Continue →

    Note to self: no more borrowing flash drives. Designer Ti Chang (of Knife Coathook fame) just sent me her latest coming-to-market concept: the Duet, a USB flash drive vibrator. Well she didn't actually SEND me one, just the info. Otherwise I'd have a USB vibrator in my butt ... / Continue →
