'Big Red Boots' turn trend-chasers into $350 cartoons: 'Can't take them off' |
2023-02-11 |
[NYPOST] Make your footwear last a little longer with Big Red. MSCHF — a product design studio on a mission to go viral with every launch — announced the upcoming release of a peculiar-looking pair of shoes, dubbed "Big Red Boots." The company describes the latest piece, made with a combination of polyurethane rubber and vinyl acetate, as "cartoon boots for a cool 3D world." However, Caliphornia hasn't yet slid into the ocean, no matter how hard it's tried... many believe the shoes are directly inspired by the Japanese manga comic book series and its titular man character, Astro Boy. "Bro I need them Astro boy boots 😂💯," wrote one eager buyer in the comments section of a TikTok clip posted by Bowery Showroom, a New York City-based boutique that specializes in novelty designs and local artists. "How y’all got the Astro boy boots alreadyyyyy?" rued one late shopper. MSCHF has said they incorporated "cartoonishness" into the shoe design, so wearers could feel freed "from the constraints of reality." "You never design shoes to be shaped like feet. Big Red Boots are REALLY not shaped like feet, but they are EXTREMELY shaped like boots," the meme-making company shared in a statement. |

#2 All the foot sweat will be trapped by the vinyl. The model looks cute but her feet will not be able to breathe. |
