Mojito shoe inspired by Marvel’s Thor: the Dark World

To mark the theatrical release of Marvel’s Thor: The Dark World, award winning footwear designer and architect Julian Hake has hand carved a new Mojito shoe. Designed as though Thor himself has hammered the shoe from a solid block of titanium to present to his companion Jane Foster.

Kobi Levi's Footwear Art Pops Up in Selfrdiges

Kobi Levi's shoes are a walking work of art and now they are hot footing over from Israel to the UK. From 22 Oct, they will be putting their best foot forward in an exclusive pop up boutique in Selfridges shoe Galleries Oxford Street London.

One of the designs on display and available to buy will be:

The Mallard at £1045 - definitely not a sitting duck!

Others will include the jaw dropping Shark (£1045) and Madonna's Blonde Ambition (£1915) which is more expensive but then she is a material girl

Helen Attwood, Buying Manager for Shoes at Selfridges, comments: “We’re so excited to bring Kobi Levi’s designs to a wider audience as the first UK stockist of the collection. The Shoe Galleries was designed to be a home for the most creative and pioneering talent in footwear design, and Kobi’s work is a perfect fit for that purpose.

Kobi Levi comments: "I'm just thrilled to bring my designs to Selfridges! This is a dream come true for me. I invite all women to visit, feel the shoes, see how real they are and try them on. I can't wait to hear the reactions.”

Kobi Levi's latest Footwear Art Design - The Cheerleader

It's the day for quirky shoes articles and here's the latest design from Kobi Levi:

Cheerleader blue and Cheerleader red 

Kobi was inspired by the unique combination of sexiness and innocence of the American Cheerleader.

Heels are knee-high socks,  the back is a pleated two coloured mini skirt over frilly white panties. and of course the pom pom created in thin leather laces. 

I know cheerleaders are American , but the red, white and blue colours are just right to cheer on the British Olympic team and to wear with your Queen's Diamond Jubilee outfit.

Price  £1,268 and only 20 made.
