I have seen a lot of shoes in my time, but none have ever looked quite like the Nike Zvezdochka. The Nike Zvezdochka has been re-released by Nike and Marc Newson for Newson's 'Transport' exhibition in NYC.
The Nike Zvezdochka features a rubberized mesh outer that can be swapped out to mix and match styles. The Nike Zvezdochka was originally created due to Newson's fascination with astronauts and their rigorous training. While wearing this shoe may not put you on the short track to being an astronaut, it is sure to garner you some out of this world looks.
