Was reading an ariticle on IGN about how happy Sony was with their sales so far and at the bottom it said briefly that Nike was going to make a PS3 shoe... so i decided to look into it further.
Quote: |
Want to prove that you're a real PS3 fanboy? Now you have your chance. Bluesole.com is auctioning off (for charity, natch!) the only pair of official Nike PS3 shoes to be offered to the public (and 1of only 24 pairs in exsistance). What makes these shoes so PS3-tastic?
* Awesome Hologram Swoosh - The First Time Nike has created a Hologram Swoosh.
* Upper is Patent Leather which mimics the heat sinks on the PS3.
* Awesome 3M material sets these off!
* The back of the shoes have the PS3 Launch Date.
* Comes with two sets of laces; Red and Black.
* Insole says "Play Beyond".
* Inside the shoe has mechanical drawings of the PS3.
The current high bid is over $800. If you couldn't score an actual PS3 on launch day, surely the PS3 shoes are the next best thing!
[Thanks to Sony's modest PR team for the heads-up] |

You think that's bad. Back in the early 2000's when Nelly first dropped the Air Force One's song and started a fad, there were dozens of shootings going around Chicago's streets just for these shoes. A bit sad that people resort to murder for shoes |

Honestly, I don't think $800 for these shoes is that much to ask. It's going to charity and they are one of a kind. How much do people spend on paintings? I'm not talking about Picasso, Rembrandt, or Group of Seven pieces. I mean contemporary art from up and coming artists. You are talking about thousands for the most mediocre of paintings at a small showing.
I wouldn't be caught dead in them, though. Sneakers are astoundingly ugly these days.

WORD!
I need some new sneakers and after searching 4 different malls, I decided not to waste the money on such crap. So needless to say, retro Favian has made a comeback with his old school 98 shocks |

Ah we're just pretending so that girls think we're interested in what they like
The shoes though, they look a bit naff ? |

Ok, I admit that I own a shoe collection that is much bigger than Nicole's.......lol, I mean, c'mon, there's many seasons of me. I mean, there's morning mist Favian, dark shadow Favian, morning light Favian, etc., etc.
Gotta have shoes to match, LMAO |
