Raf Simons cutting edge and avant-garde designs have garnered a cult like following among fashionistas. Raf is known for taking an everyday construction and flipping it to make something totally unique and innovative. Raf Simons has now set his sights on an ingenious pair of sneakers that gives you two shoes in one. The outer shell of the shoe resembles a pair of high top Chuck Taylor All Stars, but once unzipped from its rubber sole it can be replaced with an interchangeable low top sneaker. The sneakers are accented with metal eyelets, constructed with a white supple leather outer design and the inside is lined with black leather. Available now at Oki-ni.
