Glitchy Footwear by Kobi Levi

​Kobi Levi, an Israeli fashion designer, specializes in shoes. He’s been working in this field since high school when he produced his first designs in cardboard.

Since then, Levi has refined his craft at the Bezalel Academy of Arts & Design in Jerusalem. He later gained fame when Lady Gaga wore his “Double Boot” design in her music video for “Born This Way.” That design typifies his work in that it warps reality, creating a glitching visual effect.

You can see that effect in his most recent work, which includes “Break Point”. The slightly offset heels and insoles are quite wearable, even though they would seem to require the fragmentation of reality.

Levi can also produce a similar movement, but more liquified than angular.

And the angles can go sideways, too, without causing you to sprain your ankles due to precise crafting.

Levi's shoes, unlike Henry Ford's Model T cars, also come in colors other than black. Here's the same design concept in an attractive shade of orange.
