If you are looking for a pair of shoes that make a statement, look no further than the Mark McNairy 'F-Off' shoe collection. The latest shoe collection from the Dutch designer, the 'F-Off' collection is a collection of refined leather and suede boots and shoes that have a badass hidden message.
That message is printed on the handmade leather soles of each and every one of the shoes in metallic gold lettering advising people to "F*ck Off." While the message may not be tasteful, the shoes certainly are, with the blue suede shoe being my personal favorite. Each shoe in the collection also comes with a pinky ring advising people to "F*ck Off." No release dates or pricing have be announced, but you can see the Mark McNairy 'F-Off' shoe collection in its entirety before it hits store shelves here.
