The Sock Ankle Boots by Vetements are possibly the foremost example of the Parisian fashion brand's casual approach to activewears. Available in two colors (sky blue and black), the Sock Ankle Boots are designed to fit "like a second skin," and pair perfectly with a matching pair of Vetements sweats. Possibly most unique facet of the shoe design is the cylindrical stiletto heel that has been designed in the image of a small BIC lighter.
The logo-trimmed, sock-inspired boots are an example of the crossover between so-called athleisure fashion and directional design. Perfect for complementing any utility-inspired outfit, the Sock Ankle Boots by Vetements, part of the brand's conceptual SS16 collection, are a playful statement piece that would also make a great fashion investment.
