Jigsaw Puzzle

Just found another one to watch on I Don't Like Detours, which is a site similar to Not Just A Name, introducing new and upcoming designers/artists etc, his name is Maurice Vandestouwe. M.Vandestouwe is still a student at the Design Academy of Eindhoven, but there'll definately be a lot more coming from this shoemaker! In all honesty, I'm not sure about his shoes comfort-wise, but concept-wise, they are fantastic. His graduation shoe collection was constructed by assembling pieces of wood together, kinda like a jigsaw puzzle (hence the post name), and are attched to the foot using straps and strings! The profile of the shoes are very architectural, and I've always had a weakness for things building-like, don't ask why.
