Star-Studded Sneaks

Get Twinkling Feet with the Flauge Asics Doubleclutch Sneakers

— October 28, 2010 — Fashion
An awesome collaboration between two brands, these Flauge Asics Doubleclutch Sneakers are a rocking pair of star-studded high-tops.

Many details have been incorporated into the shoe, although it doesn't look overwhelming. Stars line the shoelaces and against the back of the shoe along with a dual-zippered heel. Accents of patent black leather and suede material with touches of gray give the Flauge Asics Doubleclutch Sneakers its rebellious look.
