Beyonce's Exotic Skins Sneakers Under Attack

Beyonce Under Attack for Exotic Skins Sneakers 



Well here's one organization not feeling all the post-Super Bowl Beyonce love -- PETA, who's calling out the superstar for her new Isabel Marant wedge sneakers. ET can confirm that the exclusive sneakers are made out of crocodile and anaconda skins along with stingray, ostrich and calf hair. The shoes in question are custom designed by PMK, which explains the conception behind the design of the "King Bey" sneakers on its website. 

"Summoned by King Bee and given the task to create a custom design worthy of her approval, PMK takes the Isabel Marant sneaker wedge back to the beginning of time and gives it what they call the Eden treatment. A hybrid of land and sea skins are used to create this handcrafted creation. Stingray, Ostrich, calfs fur, Crocodile, and Anaconda give the already impeccable design attitude and the tones of white mixed with gold stitched details produces a feeling of elegance, mimicking the southern belle’s sweet and fierce persona."  The original Isabel Marant wedge sneakers -- sans the exotic skins -- have been a celeb favorite, worn by the likes of Anne Hathaway, Kate Bosworth and Gisele Bundchen. Beyonce herself wore an all-black suede version in the music video for her hit single Love on Top. Isabel Marant wedge sneakers retail for approximately $660 a pair.

The anticipation for the Air Jordan XX8 has reached a fever pitch as the release date approaches. The all-new sneaker returns to its Roman numeral roots, but all other aspects are completely different. The black mesh shroud covers eye popping electric green coloring on the inner boot that is revealed when unzipped. The translucent, Zoom Air infused sole draws further attention to the shoe, while providing unparalleled cushioning for optimum performance. madone

After the UNC Tarheels played in the “Blue Camo” colorway last night, we see official images of the Air Jordan XX8 “Green Camo”.  The divisive shroud is covered in green hues, while the shank plate and midsole remain black. The white outsole is different from the translucent sole on the “Blue Camo,” but the inner portion keeps the electric green coloring similar to other colorways we have seen. The “Green Camo” XX8 will release on Saturday, February 16.
