These RYZ 'Melted Bubblegum' shoes by Magomed Dovjenko are a trippy, [technicolor leisure shoe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sr-studio-la-ca-x-vans) win. With melting liquid-like patterns all over the shoe, I can't decide whether these loafers remind me more of a lava lamp or a [psychedelic recurring dream](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alien-safari).

If you love these RYZ 'Melted Bubblegum' shoes as much as I do, you can buy them at the links on the left. The loafers were created as a 2010 collaboration between RYZ, KDU and 20 of its top artists.
