My Inanimate Object Doppelganger

Doppelganger, hailing from mid 19th century German, means, "an apparition or double of a living person." This pair of shoes is my doppelganger in inanimate form - maybe just because I'm lusting after them, but I'm still pretty sure that if I were a pair of shoes, those would be it. Sure, they're a little obnoxious and ostentatious, two things I hope that I am not, but for some reason this sounds like poetry to me:
Creative Recreation low top sneakers with metallic leather upper; velcro strap; gold laces; rubber soul...um, sole.
