As competition gets fiercer everyday, it is necessary for brands to continually innovate to improve their products whether it is through improved technology, clever ideas, or outrageous materials. Vans definitely took it to another level with these Ostrich Chukka as they are made with real ostrich skin. The shoes come in black or army green with indents that make up a polka dot pattern. Available now at Classic Kicks for $350 a pair.

    Most sneakers are made from leather. Hmm where does that come from? Lol,I thought sneaker buyers just wanted the hottest sneakers first for insane prices, but apparently they want to save the world as well!

    Nike’s been doing Ostrich forever now. Don’t really understand the innovation behind it.
