Kicks by Björn Axén
What was once simply a marshmallow white, utilitarian item to lace up before going for a run has become an object of obsession. The sneaker combines art, culture, fashion and an urban sensibility, emerging as the modern collectible. Some have been known to break the law to score the kicks they covet. The sneaker gives street cred to any wardrobe. The line, color, pattern and shape variations from the sneakersphere are endless and innovative. The best kicks, like the looks in this collection, embody innovations in all of those realms, but wait, there’s something more. An element of weird plus cool that plays perfectly for the feet…and for the head!
