Puma Releases Mega Man Inspired Shoe Design
Has anyone else notice the new trend in video game fashion are shoes? Last year, we saw Nike release a few kicks, my favorite being the ‘Nintendo Edition‘ of their ‘Nike Air Classic’ line. Now, Puma is dipping their designs in the shoe video game market. Up top is a style called Lo Mega. It might be hard to tell exactly what game is influencing the foot-gear by the picture, but according to Puma’s description, it is Mega Man:
“A fantastic material and color update inspired by Mega Man, a video game first released by Capcom in 1987. Whether you’re familiar with the character or not, this synthetic leather material looks and feels like vinyl, giving the upper a shiny, retro-futuristic look. The addition of the perforated underlays, painted eyelets, & video game inspired pixelated emboss on the toe bumper complete this awesome look.”
One word can simply explain how these sneakers look: “Hot!” The shoe’s are sold in both men and women sizes and have a $65 price tag.
