Designer Donates Sneakers for Border Run,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
10, 2005. The shoes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which she gives away to migrants seeking to cross the border into the United States, were designed through an art grant to assist their crossing. The shoes have kicked up a mini-controversy in art circles. A San Diego surgeon told Werthein that she was encouraging illegal immigration _ a charge she rejects, saying people will cross with or without her shoes. (AP Photo/Denis Poroy) (Denis Poroy - AP)
A compass and flashlight dangle from one shoelace,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. The pocket in the tongue is for money or pain relievers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. A rough map of the border region is printed on a removable insole.
They are red,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], white and green, the colors of the Mexican flag. On the back ankle, a drawing of Mexico's patron saint of migrants.
On this side of the border, the shoes sit in art collections or the closets of well-heeled sneaker connoisseurs. On the other side, in Tijuana, it's a utilitarian affair: Immigrants to be are happy to have the sturdy, lightweight shoes for the hike _ or dash _ into the United States.
Their designer is Judi Werthein, an Argentine artist who moved to New York in 1997 _ legally,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], she notes.
On recent evening in Tijuana, after giving away 50 pairs at a migrant shelter, Werthein waved the insole and pointed to Interstate 8,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the main road between San Diego and Phoenix.
"This blue line is where you want to go," Werthein,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 38,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], said in Spanish.
"Good luck! You're all very courageous," she told the cheering crowd of about 50 men huddled in a recreation room after dinner.
"God bless you!" several cried back,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Werthein has concluded that shoes are a border crosser's most important garment.
"The main problem that people have when they're crossing is their feet," Werthein. "If people are going to cross anyway, at least this will make it safer."
