The latest footwear trend to take celebrities by storm over the past few weeks has been a divisive pair.
Since their creation, MSCHF’s Big Red Boots are dividing opinions online. The cartoonishly large footwear inspired by the Japanese video game character Astro Boy have gone insanely viral due to their odd shape and size. In a statement made by MSCHF, they acknowledged that the boots “are really not shaped like feet, but they are extremely shaped like boots.”
The shoes immediately sold out on the sneaker app following their release. However, they are currently available to purchase on resale websites like StockX. Many celebrities have been donning the style recently, bringing the controversial footwear even more into the spotlight.
