The creator of the 'cronut' has designed croissant-inspired shoes

Have you every been so obsessed with a pastry that you not only re-branded it by morphing it with another pastry, but you then decided to take that pastry and design a sneaker in it's image?

We've all been there.

But jokes aside, the very real and very serious sneaker brand Koio have partnered with “The World’s Best Pastry Chef,” and creator of the cronut, Dominique Ansel, on a pair of limited-edition 'Avalanche' sneakers.

The sneakers, Ansel revealed, were a tribute to his favourite pastry, the humble croissant.

The “recipe” for these kicks is Vitello calf leather (egg), white suede (flour), patent leather (butter) and crystalized details (sugar), per the product page.

Those four ingredients mixed together form the sleek “on-trend” sneaker and come with butter-colored laces showcasing a single copper croissant on the front of each - just in case the theme was not already apparent enough.

“In both instances, we start off with the same materials or ingredients almost every time, but work to create magic through our design in the way those ingredients are measured and incorporated,” says Dominique Ansel.

And the best part of all this is that they're completely calorie free! So there's nothing to stop you diving head-first into these delicious kicks - except for the $500 price tag, of course.
