The footwear -- designed to worn around the house -- are made to look like mice. You will either want a pair or be completely repulsed at the sight of mice footwear, depending on how you feel about furry little rodents. I really like how the actual shape of the shoe mimics the body of a mouse and by simply adding a few pieces, Ashe Johnson has created a very unique piece.
