Mojito shoe
The Mojito is a shoe from one single piece. Amazing!
The designer, Londoner Julian Hakes, recognized that many parts of a show were unnecessary, as the foot itself has so much of the required strength and support built in.
After many hours of sculpting around his own foot, Hakes ended with this single wrapped geometry, somewhat looking like of twist of lime skin – hence the name ‘Mojito’.

how much is this shoe? are they for sale anywhere in the US?
I wish there were pictures of someone actually wearing the shoe.
Jacob dropped us an email that this shoe is somewhat like the shoes from Marloes ten Bhömer… and I must agree!
Interesting, but why don’t you show the shoe in a foot for a better example of how it fits.
I do not agree it looks like Marloes’s. This one is much more about the essence and has taken even more of the original form of a shoe. Maybe he got inspired, which is good. And then made it perfect. Which is beter. ;) I like!
Any pictures womeone wearing it would be great. I agree to that one.
