Fun with Feet - Body Painted Shoes and Optical Illusions

REPOST [by popular demand]

Over on a website called Mighty Optical Illusions, I found a few shoe-related images that I thought were pretty cool. The following are along the lines of the last post about custom painted shoes.. except these are painted feet:





Artists John Maurad and Jenai Chin were commissioned for a New York Magazine article titled "You Walk Wrong," which basically claims that shoes hurt your feet and the best thing to do is to walk barefoot. I don't know if I buy that theory. Humans are so much more pampered today than we were way back when, and I know that if I have to stand or walk around barefoot on concrete or tiled floors for long periods of time, my feet will get exhausted much faster than if I had a good pair of sneakers on. However, I could see high heels doing physical damage to your feet.. But as the article acknowledged, it can elevate your self-esteem for a night and really make you feel sexy. Take this optical illusion below:

Office Depot and Foot Locker have teamed up to help parents out with back-to-school expenses! Now through September 5, 2009, customers who purchase footwear or apparel from Foot Locker will receive a coupon for $10 off a $30+ purchase at Office Depot.

In turn, those who buy back-to-school supplies at Office Depot will receive a coupon for 20% off footwear and apparel at participating Foot Locker, Lady Foot Locker, and Kids Foot Locker retail locations.
