Silver and gold Bapestas? Really wasn’t feeling those. The Supras caught on once everybody and their mom saw JayZ in the gold ones. But these? I think only Ghostface can get away with these though.

Not something I would wear, but on a runway the silver pair could do some serious work. I see no hope for the gold, but perhaps someone with a different perspective could make them pop.

time to think outside the box clammy…. i’m sure you have a pair of shoes or kicks that evolved from a classic. i love original wallabees but i like these and these hopefully these types of projects will help bring back wallabees.
