Singer Cassie Ventura turned heads at Coachella this past weekend with her footwear choice, rocking an ankle boot inspired by a Jordan Retro 11 sneaker.
Forever controversial and derided as a cheap knock off, bootleg Jordan and Nike sneaker boots have never completely gone away (you can buy a pair here for $66), but were at their heyday in black, city-center communities in the mid-aughts.
Cassie is no fashion dummy in fact quite the opposite so it’s a good bet she was having some fun with the concept, making an ironic statement on an item that might be controversial but nonetheless is an iconic hood in its own right.
