Tongues for the feet


Kansas City Star

For some, sneakers are just shoes you wear on your feet. For others, however, sneakers are an obsession.

These are the people who color-coordinate their shoes to match their outfits and keep their kicks so clean they appear to be fresh-from-the-box no matter how many times they wear them. These sole-conscious consumers will feel right at home at Crooked Tongues ( www.crookedtongues.com ).

Featuring bold graphic design and photo-intensive layouts, the British-based Crooked Tongues is every bit as colorful as the subject matter it covers. You can peruse the collections of Web site members in the aptly-named "Shoe Crates" section. These photo galleries feature a wide array of classic and hard-to-find shoes in unique color combinations sneakerphiles are sure to appreciate. Some collections number in the hundreds!

The "What One's Wearing On One's Feet" section is a man-on-the-street photo gallery, where the site's editors interview random people they see out and about wearing neat shoes.

Another highlight of the Crooked Tongues site is its special features section, which has in-depth profiles of legendary products such as the Patrick Ewing's (which were popular in the early '90s) and interviews with revolutionary shoe designers like Tinker Hatfield, who designed the first Air Jordans.

Crooked Tongues is your one-stop resource on the latest and greatest in sneaker trends.
