Daily Crush: Studded High-Tops by Kenneth Cole

Don't hold this cheap pun against us: The stud is in. And it always has been. While we were used to seeing studs on denim and leather boots as a punk-rock statement not too long ago, now embellishments are making their way to athletic staples, such as these hi-tops sneakers by Kenneth Cole.

The metallic edges echoe the metallic studs along the shoe's main panels, adding a subtle android touch to your outfit. They happen to look great with a lot of different things, from black jeans to oversized shorts, provided you know how to pull them off. Otherwise, you can just stare at them until your eyes hurt.
