Kobi Levi Shoes

Israeli designer's wry and racy concepts blur the lines between fashion and art...

Blow-up sex dolls, the Queen of pop, animals, foods and gender confused brogues… Israeli designer Kobi Levi is not your average shoe maker; and his shoes are not your average shoe. Choosing to blur the lines between art and fashion, Bezalel academy of art & design graduate Kobi creates handmade “wearable sculptures” that entertain, challenge and perplex their audience. With the shoe as his canvas, Kobi – who we had the pleasure of meeting at his studio recently – uses humour and social satire to fashion absurdly original footwear that has been exhibited around the world. Having designed commercial footwear in Italy, China and Brazil, Kobi is currently collaborating with both Israeli and international companies to develop his own women’s shoe line; and if that commercial line is anywhere near as fearless or smart as his custom pieces then messrs Louboutin and Choo beware…
