Papery Shoes

When I saw these origami inspired shoes by French artist NDEUR, they brought back memories of making my first pair of shoes.  I was six-years old, and obsessed with the latest footwear fad -  jelly shoes!!  And to my doom and dismay, my mother wouldn’t buy me a pair.  I took some six-pack rings from my Dad’s beercans, and some scotch tape and created my own.  They looked passable, but definitely weren’t wearable.
