Fans waiting to see their favorite characters in the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe films can now look forward to some newly imagined Marvel-themed sneakers.
The UK-based store, The Sole Supplier, advertised a new line of "Super Shoes" that features some of Earth's mightiest heroes, including Spider-Man, Ant-Man, Black Widow and Loki. While the sneakers are not for sale, the concept art take some classic shoes and reimagine them with a Marvel-style twist.
The first character to be reimagined into a shoe is Spider-Man. The red and blue Air Jordan 1s, named "The Spiderverse," perfectly captures Spidey's webby superpowers. Although the store warns fans that the shoes will not let them climb walls, with all the hype surrounding the Spider-Man: No Way Home trailer, these shoes would definitely turn heads.
Scott Lang also received the Air Jordan treatment with "The Langs." According to The Sole Supplier, the Ant-Man sneakers come in both human and ant sizes so that heroes can wear them as they shrink or grow. The red and black colors mimic Lang's costume and the glow brings out the spark of the Pym Particles.
Black Widow's shoes, "The Romanov's," come in Nike Dunks and take a page from the comics. The shoe's black suede and leather detail matches Romanoff's costume and brings the character to life. The Dunks are also trimmed with gold, which specifically matches Romanoff's outfit from her standalone movie.
Finally, the God of Mischief scores his own line of shoes with "The Lokis." The Adidas Forums are inspired by Loki's green and gold costume and provide an aura of mystery just like the character himself.
Although these superhuman shoe concepts are not for sale, they provide inspiration for fans who want to create their own custom sneakers. They also provide some good fun while fans eagerly wait for all of Marvel Studio's upcoming films.
