Architectural shoes have always drawn attention of shoe designers and fashion lovers. And not without reason. Such footwear is conceptual and extraordinary. It doesn’t follow any fashion rules and trends. It is just a result of unlimited designer’s imagination.

Today I would like to take a good look at a shoe masterpiece created by Julian Hakes, a British architect. Julian designed an unusual sandal following architecture principles. Don’t feel confused if you haven’t spotted shoe shapes at first sight. It is normal. And now look carefully at the model and you will see in these smooth lines a toe, a heel, an instep – everything but a sole.

You will definitely consider such a creation to be crazy because it has nothing in common with reality. But precisely this idea is not new or unbelievably unpractical. Just remember Dolce & Gabbana collection for S/S 2009. It was then that a shoe without a sole appeared for the first time. The models presented by Dolce & Gabbana brand featured a platform and a high wide heel but the central part of the sole was missing.

After looking through shoe trends and innivations, Julian Hakes made a conclusion that walking in high heeled shoes it is enough to have a support on a heel and a toe. So the central part has no sense and practical necessity. According to Julian Hakes’ words, the work on this concept had much in common with a bridge designing. The sandal is made of rubber, leather and carbonic fiber.

This masterpiece has a beautiful and exotic name Mojito. The question is could these shoes be worn. Why not? We saw models going in incredible sole-less sandals from Celine or Dolce & Gabbana. The thing is comfort of such footwear. I would personally like to try on any of these architectural models.
