Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Tisdale, and Marc Ecko Shoes

Monday January 28, 2008

As if Marc Ecko's trendy sneakers weren't popular enough, he went and signed Ashley Tisdale and Vanessa Hudgens on as spokesmodels for his "Rhino Red by Marc Ecko" line, and all of the sudden, everyone has seen the ads and the commercials and they want to know two things: what are the shoes called, and where can they get them.

Well, I've got good news and bad news. I can help you out with some of the names, and I can even point you to sources for most of the styles. But finding the exact colors you've seen the High School Musical stars sporting is going to be a bit difficult. After all, you can't be as popular as those two, and expect that people won't be wanting the shoes right off of your feet.

But you know, Marc Ecko shoes are cool anyway, and if you've liked what you've seen in the commercials, you really should check out the entire line. It's filled with some really good stuff. In the meantime, here's what I've got.


ashley_tisdale_ecko_red_sneakers.jpgOkay, I know how you feel. I too loved the black and silver shoes that Ashley Tisdale wore in the Red by Marc Ecko commercials. The style is the "Chalsie," and not surprisingly, that specific version is pretty much impossible to get your hands on.

However, they do come in other colors. My second favorite is the one shown here, which is white, purple and brown. There is also a white, black and silver style.

Or, you could always hold out hope that the black and silver version will be back in stock sometime soon. (Buy Direct)

Vanessa_Hudgens_Ecko_Red_Shoes.jpgYou might have seen Vanessa Hudgens sporting these Marc Ecko sneakers in print ads. The style is one of my favorites, and it's called the "Darien." I found the exact red and white version shown in the ad at Zappos.com.

The same ad also shows the "Pherocious" in silver, which I discuss in more detail below. (Buy Direct)

And finally, the shoe that everyone's been looking for, the gold sneakers seen in the Vanessa Hudgens for Red by Marc Ecko commercial. They are beauties.

red_by_marc_ecko_pherocious.jpgThe style is the "Pherocious," and of course, she's wearing them in gold. And guess what? That's right, nobody can find them in gold -- at least, not online.

However, and this may just be me, but I actually prefer the silver version. So, check them out, and see what you think, or use the links below to try to find any of these shoes at a store near you. (Buy Direct)

Devyn,

if it’s the “Pherocious” you’re looking for, Zappos.com has them in silver.

If I see them in gold again, I’ll post back here.

Best,
Desiree
