The Viral Big Red Boots Just Got Croc-ified and We're Genuinely Speechless

MSCHF is once again up to no good. The brand behind those viral Big Red Boots and bizarre backward shoes partnered with Crocs to put a fresh spin on its larger-than-life footwear, Highsnobiety reports. Rapper Tommy Cash attended Rick Owens's Paris Fashion Week presentation wearing bright boots featuring the same cartoonish silhouette made famous by MSCHF's original red boots, but with the addition of Crocs's signature holes. He styled them with black-and-white-striped mime attire and added yellow suspenders and a coordinating umbrella. The final result was a SpongeBob-core look meant for only the most daring trendsetters.

As a streetwear brand and self-described art collective, MSCHF is all about challenging the status quo. Croc boots may not be the first thing that come to mind when we think of art, but they're certainly subversive enough, already sparking plenty of conversation online. Some people were quick to declare the brand has finally gone too far, but others commented that they actually like the Croc-ified version more.

MSCHF's Big Red Boots catapulted the brand into the spotlight earlier this year, with celebrities like Ciara, Doja Cat, and Lil Nas X taking them for a spin. While some of MSCHF's products offer commentary on capitalism, culture, and fashion, not all projects are meant to be taken so seriously. "Big Red Boots are REALLY not shaped like feet, but they are EXTREMELY shaped like boots. If you kick someone in these boots they go BOING!" the founders wrote in a press release. A brand rep further clarified to The New York Times, "It's not a satire. But what's interesting is that we're at a moment in time where it doesn't have to be."

The new iteration of Big Boots are made of a single piece of rubber and incorporate several of Crocs's classic clog details, including the strap wrapping around the back. It's unclear if these were a one-off release or will drop online for the masses, but we're secretly hoping it's the latter. Get your first glimpse at what just might be the perfect collab below.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...

Katy Perry Takes Inspiration From "Kill Bill" in Yellow Moto Jacket and Low-Rise Jeans

Katy Perry is making the press rounds ahead of the upcoming season of "American Idol." On March 28, the competition judge and singer was spotted leaving "Good Morning America" in casual, off-duty street style that turned heads. She wore distressed, low-rise R13 Denim jeans that sat at her hips, as well as a white baby tee under a cropped leather Balenciaga jacket . With its thick black stripes running down the sleeves, the yellow race jacket was reminiscent of Uma Thurman 's iconic tracksuit in "Kill Bill." Wearing an assortment of rings on each of her left fingers, Perry also carried a yellow coffee cup with her other hand to match her jacket. As for the rest of her cool outfit, which was curated by stylist Tatiana Waterford , pointed black heels peeked out from the floor-length denim and sporty cat-eye sunglasses shielded the singer's eyes. The edgy ensemble was one of three outfits she wore on Tuesday. Perry arrived on the morning-show set ...
