Gaetano Pesce and Melissa have teamed up to create a pair of truly odd and awesome shoes. These shoes are made out of recycled plastic discs that can be cut away to look however you want them to.
Gaetano Pesce and Melissa's shoe lets you cut away at the ankle portion of the shoe to create whatever high- or low-top look you want. Customizing shoes is huge right now, so it makes sense that eco-shoe brand Melissa would get in on the action.
