H&M Teams Up with Shoe Label Swedish Hasbeens




H&M is collaborating with cult shoe label Swedish Hasbeens to create a line of wooden-soled clogs inspired by the traditional Swedish styles of the '70s.

Available from April 20th in about 150 stores worldwide, the collection will feature three styles priced from $59.95 to $69.95.

There's a gladiator style strappy wedge, a heeled summer sandal with one ankle strap and a peep-toe slip-on wedge.

Celebrity fans of Swedish Hasbeens include Sarah Jessica Parker (seen here) and Maggie Gyllenhaal.

I have always wanted a pair of Swedish Hasbeens even though my personal style is nowhere near '70s bohemian. Authentic Hasbeens rarely go for less than $150 unless you stalk so the H&M collab may be your moment to strike.
