In the world of fashion, unconventional and unexpected are fast becoming the norm, with various fashion brands designing and debuting the most peculiar shoes which are guaranteed to turn heads.
Crocs has recently entered the world of wacky shoes with their latest design, the Cowboy Crocs, in celebration of Croctober, or National Crocs Day, on 23 October 2023.
After seeing the Crocs boots, we couldn’t help but look into other interesting shoe designs
Here are some of the most unconventional shoes making waves in the fashion industry, proving, once again, that style and design know no bounds.
Croc Boots
Kicking off our list are the crazy Crocs boots, a fusion of the classic Crocs and cowboy boots design. Although they haven’t hit the market yet, until 23 October, the Croc boots will undoubtedly get people talking.
Plastic Fantastic by Off-White and Jimmy Choo
Off-White and Jimmy Choo joined forces to create eye-catching, plastic, transparent heels that give the illusion of walking on air.
Elf Sneakers by Loewe
Loewe, known for its quality leather handbags, took inspiration from fantasy content to create what looks like elf sneakers. These shoes feature pointed toes that remind us of elves, and not only are they functional for day-to-day activities, but they are also a great conversation starter.
Glove Shoes by Maison Margiela
If there’s a brand that took the phrase ‘fit like a glove’ quite literally, it has to be Maison Margiela, with the Glove Shoes. These shoes feature soft, flexible leather that takes on the shape of your foot like a glove on a hand.
Elf Cowboy heels by Rene van den Berg
These stylish shoes look something like cowboy shoes, but with a bit of a twist. Like Loewe’s Elf sneakers, they feature an elongated front reminiscent of Christmas elves.
Shredded Paper Shoes by Paco Rabanne
Paco Rabanne took sustainability quite literally with these shoes that look like shredded paper. This might be the item to emulate if you were wondering what to do with your recycled paper or cardboard.
