Art and fashion regularly collide and collab with each other. LV x Stephen Sprouse, Jeremy Scott for Adidas x Keith Haring...you know the drill. But Martiniano Lopez Crozet is a special case. One half of the performance art duo Los Super Elegantes, Martiniano’s been featured in fashion publications like V, Interview, and French Elle before. Now, he’s getting buzz from the fashion world again, but for something a little different.
The wares: super supple shoes for both sexes. Made of 100% leather, these handmade pairs come in different shapes like slip-ons or booties, and different colors from bright reds to cool browns—all with stacked soles and heels. For those peeps out there looking to go bold in the upcoming season, don’t dally!

So snag yourself a pair, or place an order from his upcoming summer collection, just don’t miss out on these sick shoes to make a statement south of the ankle!
