Crooked Tongues is reporting on these brilliant Nike Dunk Low SB sneakers inspired by the work of Piet Mondrian!

The shoes are made with nubuck (a soft, leathery material) and canvas. It’s great to see the bold and colorful artwork of probably the quintessential artist of the De Stijl movement come to life in a shoe.

UPDATE: I realize that not everybody may know who Piet Mondrian is, so here’s an example of his work.
