Way Back Wednesday: The One-of-a-kind Absolut Fluevog Shoe

As part of Absolut Vodka’s 1994 ad campaign, John Fluevog and fellow Canadian footwear designer Ken Rice created a perfectly distilled platform wedge to walk you right to your happy hour. This one-of-a-kind shoe was concocted through equal parts metallic leather upper and solid transparent acrylic heel, and bares an uncanny resemblance to Absolut’s signature bottle.

It’s no wonder this shoe is part of the amazing BATA Shoe Museum in Toronto. For those of us elsewhere, head over to All My Shoes for a 360° look at this unforgettable mid-90’s style.
