    very cool and interesting shoe
    its seems like a more wearable interpretation of that kind of heel, then what marc jacobs did a while ago.

    Not my cup of tea, although I admire tne “engineering” that is necesary to make this work. But make me thing of those Marc Jacobs shoes from a few seasons (hated them).

    it almost looks as if the shoes are floating, and the heels are shadows on the sidewalk.

  24. Marisa Says:

    These are so crazy at first I couldn’t even see the heel slant.
    Love them!

  25. Hannah Says:

    Nice! As others have said, the shoes literally seem to be floating and heels look like shadows. I love.

    I wish she would’ve rolled up her pant legs so people can see how high they go. Chic nonetheless.

    [...] took me at least 30 seconds of looking at these shoes to realize that the woman wasn’t floating two inches off the ground and what I thought were shadows [...]

  29. Cecilie Says:

    What in the world is going right here?!

  36. Illusion Shoes | The Official Blog of LG Says:

    [...] These shoes are very strange. What looks like a women floating in the air is in fact a rather nifty sole of the shoe, made to give the wearer apparent levitation powers. [...]

  37. Steph Says:

    genius, these blur the lines between shadow and shoe, playing with you mind, and sense of reality. I design and make shoes by hand, and the intricate engineering that goes into this is mind boggling.

  38. MAISON CHAPLIN Says:

    That looks like a Balenciaga shoes! Loved the idea

  39. Belgand Says:

    I actually have a great deal of trouble trying to see the heels as a shadow. They just appear to obviously be heels to me. Yet, at the same time, they’re a bit hard for me to look at. I can kind of see where people might be getting the illusion from, but it just entirely fails to work on me. Try as I might, I can’t see the levitation at all.

  40. E Says:

    Woah, I just had some trouble looking at that, and thought it was a shadow.

    Very cool.
