Hasta La Ideas

If you thought Valentine’s Day footwear was just about red high heels, gravity-defying stilettos, and cutesy pink ballet flats, you must not be the sneaker freak I am! This Valentine’s Day, all our favorite athletic shoe brands are showing us their romantic side (and in some cases, their cartoon-y and kitschy sides too) with bright red and pink color combos and heart patterns galore. From Nike Dunks embellished with X’s and O’s to bold red floral Pumas, these flashy footwear are bound to give your feet plenty of love and support (and attention) this February 14th! While they’re not exactly year-round practical, and quite frankly I’m not sure even I would be caught dead in any high-top conversation-heart-covered creation, you can’t deny that these sneaks are adorably festive, not to mention a cheerful addition to any hardcore collector’s closet display. Plus, you have to admit – they’re not that much crazier than the usual in-your-face color combos found in lines by the likes of Nike, Vans, and Creative Recreation. Whether you’re bold enough to show them off on the street or just like to keep them polished on display, check out the slideshow for more sweet V-Day sneakers!
