I hope their coming to America. I would totally buy those shoes. And keep them in the car. And wear them only for motoring.

I like them, despite my cynical attitude in general towards this sort of cross-branding/cross-marketing technique they're cool looking shoes, but they don't exactly look like out and out driving shoes like the Puma/MINI effort from a few years back.

But I could end up stepping out of my old brown shoes into another pair.... But I bet they'll be horrendously expensive.

the article calls them a 'Clubfoot' , not a very good name

Not so much you, but it's NOT called a Clubfoot!

Surely that should be obvious from this paragraph?

We just think it’s a shame MINI and Onitsuka Tiger didn’t take the cross-branding one step further, launching a Clubfoot to match the Clubdoor on the Clubman. But maybe that’s why we don’t work in marketing?!

But apparently not!

Nice looking shoe though!

Haha, yeah great song!!

I do hope these shoes come to Canada! It's tricky to order shoes without trying them on so if not, I'd have to wait until my next hop across the pond!!!
