Seen at SIA: Mindblowing Quiksilver Shoes
Jan 22, 2007 · 06:24 PM · permalink
I stopped by the Quiksilver booth get a closer look at some of the apparel from the snowboard and ski fashion show last night, and got sidetracked by these babies.
Gene, the Quiksilver shoe rep caught me eyeing the shoes and showed me their catalog for spring, thereby blowing my mind. Their retro-inspired loafers and lace ups are combining materials like wool, perforated leather, woven jute, and embossed leather in endless varieties, all with a slim profile and a nice soft athletic sole. I thought my black and white Creative Recreation Fidels were cool, but I left the Quiksilver booth jonesing for some new galoshes.
You can’t ski in them, or even reasonably walk in snow, but I’m in love. I guess you could go to the grocery store to buy ski snacks in them. There’s you’re “snow sports” connection.

Yes, yes, but do they have women’s shoes?
I know this was like a year ago but do you by chance remember the style of the shoes? I really want the hounds tooth shoe if its even possible anymore.
