Another Bright Design From Your Kicks Design Team.

Our featured pair for this blog entry is titled The Imperial City. Â There are so many details on this pair that it will take you awhile before you can gather them all. Â Not only are there multiple cultures and languages represented in this design, but the colors are also very eclectic. Â

The Imperial City: Available Sept 2011

This pair of vibrant kicks can be purchased by Clicking Here!

Shoe Description:Â Combining the always fashionable camo with the casual slip on shoes, these kicks will make your feet anything but invisible. Â This designâ€™s disruptive color pattern and details add a combative edge to what could be a civilized shoe. With deftly painted barbed wire stretching across your kicks, this shoe wonâ€™t conceal your sharp sense of style.

One launched and four to go! Keep posted! Another style revealed tomorrow!

Featured Pair: The Hominid

Saturday, August 20 2011 / Hand Painted Shoes, Launch, Mens, Neiman Marcus, Retailers / by Benjamin

Macabre Design Makes It to the Top of Featured Pair List!

Earlier today we launched our first of five new designs that will be sold exclusively through NeimanMarcus.com. Â Each week we will launch two or three more designs culminating with the final launch in early September.

This design not only has a macabre feel to it, it also carries historical undertones. This design was inspired by a recent cover of National Geographic which covered the evolution of humans. Â The article stated that new bones of an ancient Hominid had been discovered in sub sahara Africa. Â It was a rare find because it helped establish another link between our great ancestors and ourselves. Â Be sure to grab a pair of The Hominid before it goes extinct!

The Hominid: Available Sept 2011

Design Description: Hominid â€“ n. a primate of the Hominidae family that includes humans and their fossil ancestors. Â This definition is seen through the partial fragments of an early ancestor’s skull painted on this pair of unique slip on shoes.Â The design appeals to both the casual bystander and the most devoted student of anthropology. Â Neutral but dramatic, The Hominid hand painted shoes will make a stark statement for the sleek Homosapien.

New Kicks for the Men to Sport

Wednesday, March 9 2011 / Hand Painted Shoes, Launch, Mens, News / by Benjamin

Check out our three newest men’s shoes available today! Any guy hoping to rock some exclusive and individual kicks can find a personal style. If you want to keep updated with our newest designs, check out the men’s page by Clicking Here. The three men’s styles recently released are: Sink or Swim, Los Angeles Stars, and Forbidden Seas.

Sink or Swim

The Sink or Swim is our retro shoe of the season. It makes its triumphant return with more flavour than originally thought possible. You have to see the details on this pair! The detail of the bones on the skeleton hand looks amazing!

Los Angeles Stars

For all the Los Angeles lovers out there, this pair was designed for you. Los Angeles Stars tastefully garners street cred, with gold plated six shooters and silver bullets. The skull looms large to emphasize the grim nature of the streets.

Forbidden Seas

Perfect for any seafaring mate or lass, these kicks bring some vibrancy to the experience of traveling the open water. But one could be miles from any wave or tide and still appreciate these kicks, as their dynamic colours will hook the glare of anyone who sees you wearing them, as if they were a fish on your line.
