People were jaded by megacorporate control of so much of their lives, but couldn’t see how they might take some power back… The result …

Yes, these were edible. Originally exhibited at the Winkleman Gallery in 2003, these oversized Licorice Shoes by NY artist Andy Yoder remind us why “eat” rhymes with “feet”. They were apparently based on his memory of his father’s black wingtips and grandmother’s ever-present black licorice candy cache. Eating the entire …

Some interesting shoe related paper arts from Carlos N. Molina, a self-taught paper sculptor and graphic designer. Originally from Puerto Rico and now in New York, Molina makes miniscule paper shoe sculptures out of origami paper - keep in mind that most of these measure only 1.5 x 1.5 x …

Hooray, hooray. Let’s hear it for Shoe PR stunts. These are all the rage now and they certainly give me something meaty to post about on Shoe-n-Tell. The latest involves London’s Harrods department store which hired an actual live Egyptian cobra in order to guard their $120,000 Rene Caovilla jewel …

Don’t look now but the competition for “shoe pouches” for your new Nike+iPod Sport Kit combination is heating up. I don’t have the kit, so I had no idea they even made them. But they seem like a decent idea if you do have one.

There are several manufacturers making …

Yep. This would make a great April’s Fools joke or post on The Onion, wouldn’t it? The problem is that it’s true. In a publicity stunt move that’s sure to set other designer shoe outlets scrambling to suck up to the post office, Saks Fifth Avenue opened their new shoe …

OK, so we all have been living with the whole roller shoe phenomenon - bright-eyed, young maniacs on shoes with wheels everywhere. Hey, I’m cool with it because I’m still able to dodge out of the way when they come speeding down the walkway at the mall. …

All of the true Sneakerheads out there probably already know about this store (and the millions of other ones out there), but I decided to post it anyway. This is the Shoeciety, an online shoe shop in Malaga, Spain that specializes special edition sneakers that bigger companies like Nike, …

Maybe the tagline of this review should have been - “Because girls just wanna mow lawns.” All jesting aside, this company sells shoes that are specially designed for lawn-care activities. They’re meant to provide extra protection and insulation for outdoor work like landscaping and mowing while remaining comfortable enough …

Just in case you just can’t get enough Katamari Damacy, someone’s put them on shoes so you can show off how your gaming habits are taking over your life. Man, why didn’t I think of making these. The white canvas shoes feature 24 different colorful Katamari “Cousins” and have black …

Did you know that there is an honest to god High Heel Shoe Museum? Yep. If your thing is crazily exotic or extreme high heeled shoes, well then, this is going to be the place for you. Granted this isn’t a PHYSICAL museum. Instead it’s an online repository …

A pairing up Nike and Payless will result in a higher performance women’s running shoe at lower prices - at least that’s what the market-makers who put together the deal are hoping. The shoe, which will be in the “Tailwind” running shoe collection, is going to take advantage of …

You may have already heard about it, but Amazon has jumped headfirst into the online Shoe biz with a brand new separate site. I have to hand it to them - when they go all out, they don’t mess around. The new website is called Endless.com and they …

I came across an interesting article about a shoe designer boutique that’s taking “shoes your way” to a new level. Morgan Miller’s new store in South Beach, FL lets consumers customize their own shoes by choosing among a wide assortment of components.

I was thinking that the process might be …

In case you haven’t already heard the news (or seen the TV commercials running), Gap has jumped headfirst into the online shoes fray with their new Piperlime website. I’m a bit confused by the name, but I guess they wanted something that sounds “freshly picked” and lime certainly fits …
