Top 3 High-Tops (Part Deux)

In continuation with my latest infatuation with high-top sneakers, here are three more pairs that would unquestionably have you guys salivating...

First up, we have Christian Louboutin's now iconic Louis Flat high-tops with (expectedly) lots and lots of studs... but this time round, they're on denim! That's a first from Louboutin and I'm loving the mixture of the denim with leather details. Despite the fact that the sneakers are completely covered in studs, I have to say this is one of the more understated designs from Louboutin compared to his other ones.

Then we have these two from Italian shoe designer Guiseppi Zanotti, who's famous for their sky high heels for the ladies. This is the very first time they're releasing high-top sneakers for guys so this is pretty monumental. I love how Zanotti so subtly translated the aesthetics from the brand's iconic heels and boots to these sneakers. They definitely bring something new to the table by using snake skin materials and by incorporating gold metal plates. The mixture of fabrics in the second pair is simply genius!
