From hightops to flipflops in seconds!
Has this ever happened to you?
You’re walking along in your high-top running shoes heading for the basketball court, when suddenly there’s a BEACH!
The tide is coming in. You’re going to have totally soaked footwear for the game, unless you’re wearing MODULAR SHOES!
That’s right, with these new space-age shoes, zip-zip and your high-tops become flip-flops!
With this stylish, versatile product, boat shoes turn to jungle boots instantly! Rubber sandals become stiletto pumps! Loafers turn to cowboy boots!
Thanks to 40 pounds of zippers embedded in the design, you now only need ONE pair of shoes, for life!
Call now, and get these attractive steak knives as a bonus…

From sports shoe to shower shoe in one zip? Seems somehow both logical and gross at the same time.
I want a pair!!!!
Hmmm. What unfortunate appendage(s) would some men manage to get caught in a zipper (or two or three or…)? “Zippity do da, zippety OW!” And how would some guys (and women, too, I’ve noticed) who can’t even keep one fly zipped manage with these?
One might anticipate Brad Pitt having his toes hanging out…

i know these shoes. they are from a cool new label called “Nat-2″. they do all kinds of innovative designs.
check http://www.nat-2.eu
i see the modular system just as an option, but mostly the shoe is probably worn closed so the zipper on the outside gives it a very high-end look. the designs of the shoes are really fast forward.
