Shoe prop help. Do you know this shoe make?

Does these seem familiar to anyone? We speculate these were some European sport sneakers. These were used on production back in 2004:

Might be a wrestling or boxing shoe.

Those tend to have real thin soles.

Well, I just Googled about a dozen things and came up with zilch.

Tried karate / martial arts shoes, gym shoes, gymnastics, racing ... no matches.

Good luck.

They look like designer shoes. Prada, puma and zegna have made that general style in the past. And if they are designer shoes, then there's a very slim chance that you'd find them for sale.

Yeah, they seem to be of that "driving shoe" designer mode that has been popular amongst some trendy men since around 2004. Puma started marketing their line of driving shoes in regular stores. These don't look like Puma's though. Sorry that's not much help but I would definitely go designer or trendy sporty Euro routes over specific sports shoes.

I would agree as soon as I saw them "Puma" came to mind I would look into them

Try looking for dance sneakers.

HERE and HERE as examples for starters.

They have a split between the heel and toe for foot flexibility.

Good luck.

Also some driving shoes have that kind of split as well for "heel/toe" work on the pedals.
Piloti makes some though they usually have small nubs on the soles...
