Good Pictures are finally here

Qualifications: Does owning nearly 500 pairs of sneakers count? “I’ve got trainers I haven’t even worn,” the British designer says with a laugh. “I just like to look at them.”
Did he do his homework? Absolutely. McQueen, who often turns to historical texts and films for inspiration, studied eighteenth-century British anatomy books before sitting down at the drafting table.
Where it shows: The Anatomical Vein Mids are based on the structure of a human foot. They feature toe prints, tendons stretching along the base of the foot, and veins running up the ankle. “It’s not quite like for like,” McQueen says, “because there’d be a lot more than what you see.”
Also available by McQueen: Seven other models, both low-top and high-top, in leather and suede, in tan, brown, ice blue, and black.
Where you can find them: Puma Black Store in Manhattan, Alan Bilzerian in Boston, and Puma.com.
I am in love with the first, second, and fourth pair...
Does anyone know the price points, or whether or not they will also be available at the McQueen Meatpacking District store?
