“Shoefiti” Is The New Banksy

Move over Banksy, shoefiti is the new thing in town.

Snelson is the design director over at Luxury Rebel and these shoes are screaming rebellion. Renée spoke to Footwear News about her progression from shoe designer to street artist and mentioned that it was just a natural progression and that most of her inspiration comes from the streets. Renée has had a blog for a few years that she would tend to sketch and paint some really outlandish shoes that had a twist. Now you can see them all over the streets of New York City, which is pretty awesome.
