Oversized Shoe Seating

This 'Woouf!' Sneaker Bean Bag is Modeled After a Gigantic High Top

— April 24, 2013 — Art & Design
If you thought basketball players had big shoes, this 'Woouf!' Sneaker Bean Bag puts a size 20 shoe to shame. Designed by Woouf!, a Barcelona furniture designer, this piece and others from the quirky furniture company are sure to add a whimsical touch to common areas.

It's also pretty awesome how the bean bag has been shaped and detailed to look exactly like a high top sneaker. This is a classic and timeless shoe style and piece of furniture for any man cave or den. As for its decorative details, the electric yellow laces, detailed treads, vibrant red "W" for Woof! and head rest complete the look. After a long day at work or after a grueling visit to the gym you can rest, relax and recline on this sneaker bean bag. Keeping with the tradition of shoes coming in two, it seems fitting that instead of getting just one of these chairs, you should get a pair.
