The Snookerized shoe comes in three different colors and is glitterized to perfection. I’m sure the real Snooki didn’t have anything to do with the creation of this shoe, but I’m sure she would be proud of the result, as it's right up the 'Jersey Shore' alley. The [platform slingback Steve Madden 'Snooki' shoe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ugg-goldenrise) will be flying off the shelves in no time. Personally, I think it’s a little too classy for the Jersey Shore.
