The streets of East London come alive every Sunday morning with the hustle and bustle of Brick Lane, Spitalfields and Hoxton which all contribute to bringing some serious foot traffic out onto the streets, and where there's foot traffic I'm always looking for eye-catching sneaker stories.
There is a trueism that in Europe monochrome styling is evident everywhere - and it's true. A lot of people wear black, and in winter when the skies are grey colour can vanish from the streets.
Which is how I came to notice these subjects. Both tourists from Korea visiting London, they had very limited English, but what they lacked in conversation they more than made up for with bright colour with their signature colourful kicks, which injected some vivid colour onto London's street.
They're not Limited Edition, collectable or particularly rare, but when I spotted them I did think that their shoes were priceless in terms of brightening up the grey London winter.
