The ‘Large Purple Boots’ Folks Have a New Bizarre Shoe, Backward Sneaker

The oldsters behind the now-viral “Large Purple Boots” craze have new weird footwear to promote you for a pleasant little chunk of change — it is a sneaker that swings each methods … fairly actually.

MSCHF — the Brooklyn-based artwork collective, which all the time appears to be churning out quirky merchandise like this — introduced their newest creation this weekend. They name it the BWD Shoe, and the gimmick this time is … you’ll be able to slide your foot in from the entrance or the again.

You heard that accurately … whereas the inventory photograph of theirs exhibits a foot mannequin coming in from what would usually be the highest of the shoe (north) — making it appear like they’re carrying the shoe utterly backwards — you’ll be able to really put on it historically too.

To be trustworthy, we’re probably not certain how the mechanics of this design work. It is also unclear if each suits really feel the identical, or if one’s extra cosy than the opposite. From what we are able to see right here, the “ahead” model appears so much like a sandal — AKA, not an excessive amount of of heel/ankle help.

These items drop on April 11, and are solely going to be on sale for a one-hour window beginning at 2 PM ET by way of their web site or the MSCHF Sneakers app. Price ticket … $135.

Not practically as costly as their famed boots are (about $350), and who is aware of what they will go for on the resale market. The actual fact they’re promoting/promoting them as tremendous unique suggests they will go for lots. One other issue to contemplate … will celebs come flocking???

Tons of stars obtained on the BRB hype these previous few months … together with Diplo, Janelle Monae, Hasbulla, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Seth Rollins and extra. Everybody appeared to like these.

The pink boots may’ve appeared goofy at first, however because it seems … individuals obtained on board and really rocked ’em — which suggests … these two-way sneakers may most likely catch on too!
