Walk a Mile In Godzilla's Shoes
Posted at 10:38 AM Dec 29, 2008
In slightly happier and less mean-spirited news, Puma released four pairs of shoes inspired by Toho's greatest monsters, and have created some of the coolest damn sneakers I've ever seen. Clockwise from the upper left, that's Terror King (Ghidorah), Moth King (Mothra), Lizoid King (Godzilla), and N/A (Mechagodzilla). There's a King Kong shoe as well. All of these will be released in March at places where limited edition, incredibly expensive sneakers are sold, and I'm betting there will be very, very few of them. Thanks goodness I'm one of those slob nerds that wouldn't know fashion if I was hit by a bus full of supermodels. However, if Puma had made a Jet Jaguar shoe... (Via /Film)

Shoes I'd rather not see:
Hedorah (Smog Monster: Ewww....)
Zilla (Godzilla-In-Name-Only from the American movie: LAME)
Biolante (WTF is this shoe supposed to be, anyway?)
Minya (Baby Godzilla: No thanks.)
Shoes they should have made:
Anguiras (Godzilla's little horny buddy: Attitude FTW)
Jet Jaguar (Like he said: Geeks would flock)
Megalon (Giant Roach Shoe? Why not?)
Gigan (Buzzsaw down the middle, with red "eye" at the front. Come on. It'd be cooler than Gigan was.)

Posted 12/29/2008 at 10:33:35 AMFor those who don't know, Kumonga was the giant spider in Son of Godzilla
THESE. ARE. DOPE. Now if only God would materialize a pair at Ross....

Posted 12/29/2008 at 01:32:23 PMAhhh man! I would kill for some Jet Jaguar shoes!
Posted 12/29/2008 at 02:59:54 PMHoly living fuck I want Mothra shoes.
Mothra: "I just fought Biolante!"
Godzilla: "Isn't he a giant flower?"
Mothra: "Sometimes."
Needless to say, I can only hope that Gamera shoes are on the way, and they are full of smeat. Or, at the very least, sweat.
