From Hellraiser to Godzilla
The sneaker culture eludes me. Me? I’m a boots kind of guy. I know dudes that have more sneakers than Carrie Bradshaw’s shoe collection in Sex in the City. Hey, to each their own. But I will admit to getting a bit excited when designers venture into horror territory and create a decent pair of sneaks based on some of my favorite films.
Nike took a crack at the genre with a line-up based on A Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th, Dawn of the Dead and more. But those never saw the light of day (read more about that here). Now, I’ve come across some more designs – some that will never be reproduced – that you ought to check out like a pair of sneakers that would make Pinhead grin and another set to stomp a city in.
Of course, these suckers – if available – fetch a pretty penny.
