Suicoke is no stranger to weird shoes, and it’s only getting more familiar with its latest footwear release. Made as a collaboration with fellow Japanese brand Doublet, the sandals feature removable printed sock liners and furry straps, offering a look that imitates that of dog paws. Wearers can choose between an extra fuzzy black version of the sandal or a bolder Dalmation print iteration.
The shaggy shoes follow other innovative (or perhaps stomach-churning) designs by Suicoke. The brand’s last footwear release boasted a Vibram FiveFinger design that highlighted all ten of its wearer’s toes in black patent leather, an alternative to its previous nude FiveFinger shoes complete with toenails. Painted and unpainted versions of the latter were available to add to the optical illusion, an arguably more disturbing sight than Suicoke’s latest pair of furry footwear. We’d rather walk our dogs in matching kicks than rock the not-so-barefoot look.
