Photo: Would you wear these student-designed shoes?

Kudos to Wheat Ridge High School art teacher Franky Scaglione and his art students, dubbed “Fresh 23,” who are competing in the Vans Custom Culture contest.

Check out all the wild shoe designs entered in the competition to get in the running, so to speak, for $50,000. If Wheat Ridge wins the dough, they plan to use the money to support their school’s art program. And they’d get a trip to the Big Apple.

If you want to support these students, vote on their design by Monday, May 13, by clicking here.
