The Qozmo Hi Alien Platform is the latest piece of unusual footwear by the UK-based eboutique Y.R.U.
The Y.R.U eboutique is no stranger to funky pieces of footwear. Within this month's new releases are unicorn-inspired pumps and shoes featuring bird-like accents. However, the Qozmo Hi Alien Platform is said to be the most eccentric of this month's latest additions. With an evident alien theme, the alien platform features a holographic finish atop a lime green base color. A row of spikes cover the heel while an antenna sits on the toe box of each foot. The heel of this shoe stands at 4 inches while the platform is 3 inches.
This intergalactic platform is available on the Y.R.U website as well as select retailers.
