Urban Style Shoes


A few posts ago we published “Newspaper” with creative shoe designs all related to newspapers, and before that, we published “Wandering the Web – Sneaker Designs” with inspirational shoe designs all related to the World Wide Web. This week, we decided to aggregate useful shoe designs to be used in case of an emergency… Designs like the metro map, a cheat sheet in Chemistry or Math, or a Monopoly style board, in case you get bored. custom shoes - South Korean city of Seoul

The sneakers design on your left represent the South Korean city of Seoul. The artist, Abmnatn, says that you could actually use them to find your way around the city if needed.

For the chemist-to-be, see below how to pass your Chemistry exam!
(I’ve to agree that this could have defiantly been helpful during my school years.) (Zazzle.com )

And if you are a doctor-to-be, then the sneakers below could interest you; The designer of these shoes referenced an anatomy book and painted the muscular structure of the foot on each of his white canvas shoes in acrylic paint. Sexy, right?

If you are neither a doctor nor a chemist, but rather a computer scientist, Reebok and designer John Maeda teamed up to bring art and science together and create this colorful shoe where the inside sole and lining are John’s actual hand-written code, the same code that generates the graphics you see on the exterior of the shoe. Want one? Only 100 of them were available.

Elycia Watson is the lady behind www.loveelycia.com, she loves taking photos and dressing in silly outfits and colors, a perfect match for us, we love to do that too! Elycia tried our Stickers for Sneakers, not on sneakers but rather on Oxford pair of shoes, and had great results. You can see for yourself @ “Restyle Funkkit Shoe Makeover and What I Wore Fancy New Shoes. Thank you again for your post. We appreciate the honesty.

Chloe’s blog lazyexplorers has a collection of post items about vintage, DIY projects, giveaways and other cool stuff. Chloe was excited about FunkKit and offered to do a product review, and of course, we said YES. Keep tuned for the final customized shoes.

Another wonderful and useful site to add to your favorites is “The Burlap Bag“. A mortar shop of handmade items in Austin Texas, their goods are handcrafted by more than 80 different artists and they love supporting artists and appreciate high quality items, just like we do! In their blog they share easy and money-saving projects, and recently offered a giveaway for packs of our FunkKit stickers. And WOW the reactions were amazing. Congratulation to the winners!

We loved collaborating with The Burlap Bag, Chloe and Elycia.
