Swarovski Running Shoes

Now these are some running shoes we can really get behind.

Normally the ladies at Measetique Jewels prefer high heels, occasionally the cute and well-styled ballet flat. But after reading the below article from InStore Magazine, we find ourselves coveting this pair of running shoes! (For us US readers, football = soccer!)

"Swarovski has demonstrated in the past their willingness to cover virtually anything with crystals - from the interior of a Lamborghini to Susan Boyle's toenails - in order to get a media hit. Their latest PR stunt is leather Nikes embedded with 4,000 crystals. The company believes that the shoes are the most expensive pair of football boots ever used in action. "Action" here means a pre-match warm-up and photo-op during which they were worn by a French footballer who ditched them for real shoes once the game began."
