Sunrise-Inspired Shoelaces

The Jasmine Takanikos x Benjo's Collection are Vibrantly Colorful

The Jasmine Takanikos x Benjo's shoelace collection was inspired by the sunrises and sunsets of Eric Cahan's photographs, which were published in issue two of Saturdays Surf magazine. Full of vibrant colors, they are the perfect way to add a touch of summer to existing footwear. Not surprisingly, the dual-toned shoelaces are impeccable. Takanikos is, after all, a New York-based color and branding consultant known among the creative community for her flawless ability to pair pigments.

From rich blue to deep red and orange, the Jasmine Takanikos x Benjo's shoelace collection can be used for different shoe styles as well. The collection was Takanikos way of expressing her love of accessories. She states, "Shoelaces are an extension of your aesthetic, a pop, a statement—I love accessories for that reason."
