Say what you want about PRADA. The brand delivers three shoes from their Spring/Summer 2011 runway show that actually show a hint of being unique. In a market flooded with footwear options, these forward looks mix classic silhouettes with a touch of “different.” Espadrille-like jute rope is mixed into the mid-sole to give it a unique touch. Get them through PRADA retail or online.

they are so so beautiful, the only problem is that they are on all campaigns, at the end you are not dressing understated with these, they scream prada all the time!
Are we not tiring of this kind of incessant ‘mixing’? As if it’s a massive innovation to just through two classics together. 2+2=3, if you ask me.
A brogue with an espadrille sole? I’d guess it was a joke, except that it seems depressingly devoid of humour. It labours under the pretense of newness but actually is just a wacky ‘avant-garde’ rehash.
Maybe we could have a bowler hat made of lace next?
Damn, I love them…
Maybe someone should try it. Also, not sure if innovation is the right word in the case of PRADA. They’re just different. Good know some have strong opinions is either direction with them.
I personally love them. Wacky is good. We’d have the same shit every day if it wasn’t for wacky.
In this case, I am o.k. screaming PRADA.
Actually, I should add that if we’re tired of “mixing” then we’re also tired of the re-hashed heritage and classics. I, for one, am.
i’m disappointed that my last comment didn’t make it past the screening process. i’ll tone down my previous comments, and just state that these shoes scream gender identity crisis. male upper, female soles. horrible design. who is the target population?
Hrm if I’m remembering correctly, they looked far better on the runway while they had a bigger white layer. Still like them a lot anyway!
Also have to say I agree with Jeff on the heritage tip.
IMO Prada seem to suffer a lot in the UK from waves of football casual types buying up Prada Sport gear. Leaves the mainline with quite a limited audience.
The mainline will always have a limited audience because of the pricing. I’m pretty sure Prada Sport is the section that pays the bills for the rest of Prada.
