The concept of velcro is for children who don't know how to tie their shoes.Velcro is lame for adults.If you possess velcro sneakers, you're either1) An elderly person rocking old school Reebok2) A child molester who also has the light-up sneakers to attract children.Like I said, velcro is lame.But not anymore.I would prefer these velcro mamma jammas to tying my laces anyday!Besides, laces are troublesome when you don't want them viewed (i.e. tucking them into the sides of your shoes, tying them behind the tongue) but in this case, you can strap them on and go.Only problem...Where the hell am I going to get $980.00 from?Maybe Obama's stimulus plan can help me out.
I love Kanye West. Period.
But after much anticipation hearing about his collaboration with Marc, I was a bit disappointed in his shoe collection debut at last Thursday's runway show.
Doesn't the sneaker throw off the whole ensemble?Although the scarf and the bag are of a different color than the gloves, jacket, and pants accompanied by it, it doesn't look odd. Once you reach the shoes, the whole look almost seems a joke.Claiming that he "wanted to be a fashion designer his entire life," you would think that 'Ye would have put more time and effort into the collection (or at least the single style at left which is a preview of what's to come), especially in this official recession, when people tend to spend less and are becoming more & more uninterested with luxury items. Even to the wealthy, runway/luxury items have became more of a look book than an actual accessibility.
When viewing this sneaker you can familiarize it with the popular saying - desperate times do indeed call for desperate measures. Hopefully Mr. West will enliven and excite us with the collection further down the road, and make us believe that he lives up to the title of "Louis Vuitton Don."(Oh, by the way Mr. West, when are you ever going to debut that "Pastelle," collection of yours that was highly discussed a few years back?)
