Haute Stepper

Cleveland based designer D.Hayes is notorious for utilizing unique fabrics, bold color combinations and avant garde silhouettes for his fashion collections and is preparing to do the same with the launch of his luxury footwear collection.

"A shoe can tell you a lot about a person's style," said Hayes when asked about his new venture. "Someone wearing the O:U "Retro" has a keen sense for classic style and quality with a love for detail work and a need for comfort at the same time."

Origins:Unknown "Retro" are handcrafted in La Marche, Italy and are made of the finest calf skin leather and suede. The unisex hi-top sneakers mimic the clean classic designs of basketball shoes from the 70's and 80's, fusing Hayes unusual color schemes, luxury fabrics, and high quality design to create a statement making sneaker.

"In my opinion (shoes) not only look good and complete a look, but (should be) comfortable and be made of quality with close attention to detail," explains Hayes. "A shoe, whether it be a sneaker or a heel should have an attitude and style both on and off the wearer."

The limited edition shoe is so exclusive that only 15 pairs will be produced and will retail for $169.00, but from now until Monday in a Valentine's Day special for my followers, Hayes is offering the shoe at a special discounted rate of $99!
