Not just shoes but works of art, Kobi Levi’s footwear designs are fun, fantastic and, frankly, outrageous. How far outside of your comfort zone are you prepared to step?
Toucan Shoe
This shoe is part of a collection of leather footwear designed by Kobi Levi to resemble different birds – in this case a tropical toucan.
Swan Shoe
The Israeli designer Kobi Levi has transformed the ordinary high heel into an extraordinary swan’s head – a striking example from his bird collection.

Kobi Levi can spend weeks creating his stunning shoes by hand, like this ‘wearable sculpture’ resembling a mallard duck.

Tulip Shoe
This leather design shows more than a hint of Dutch inspiration.
Rocking Chair Shoe
It’s not always polite to put your feet on the furniture – but sometimes it can’t be helped.
