Designer Antonio Vietri, from the northern Italian city of Turin, showcased the world's first 24-carat gold shoes, Wednesday.<br />The artisan designed the line of gold-woven moccasins himself, under his label 'Gold Shoes'.<br />The shoes are custom-fit, with high-tech 3D scanners ensuring that the shoes are perfectly made to measure. After the patterns are measured, they are cut and sewn by hand, and a special weave made from gold and platinum strips are inserted into the shoe's upper.<br />The shoes are ready to be delivered within 72 hours. "We will reach him wherever he is", Vietri said, adding that they can even be delivered by helicopter.<br />The 'Gold Shoes' moccasins are available in blue and black, and retail at €25,000 ($26,666).<br /><br />Video: Ruptly<br />Music: Big Bang Fuzz
