Marc Jacobs started it with his bootiewarmer shoes; a sock or legwarmer crossed with a bootie or mary jane to make a boot and they were cool, unique, just funky enough without bin completely ridiculous. They came, they were seen, they were conquered? Or were they? Don’t be too sure shoe friends. Sockboots may be down, but they are certainly not out. FALKE, the German hosiery and legwear brand, collaborated with Hussein Chalayan to create a range of sock boots exclusively for the designer’s autumn/winter 2008-09 show in Paris and shoedish likey! This is one of those looks that only needs a little push to get the yarn rolling. We expect (and hope) this look to come full circle by the time were buying up boots for the winter. Thoughts?
