The Fila x Pokémon shoe collaboration in South Korea is full of some cool-looking shoes based on Pikachu, Charmander, Squirtle, Bulbasaur, and Jigglypuff.
The collaboration includes Fila’s Court Deluxe shoe, with a different colorway for each Pokémon. Charmander has an orange and light green set of colors, referencing the Pokémon’s eyes. Pikachu has white, yellow, and red of course. Bulbasaur gets light green, Squirtle has light blue, and Jigglypuff gets baby pink, as seen in the image.
They all come in their own special Poké Ball shoebox, as well. The back of each shoe shows off the monster’s type or types, while Pikachu’s just has the mouse’s adorable face.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like these shoes are coming to the West anytime soon, or, if they are, we just haven’t heard the announcement yet. They’re pretty understated and totally wearable, even if the velcro strips leave a little to be desired and look a little like toddler shoes. That can definitely be overlooked.
There’s no word on a release date or pricing just yet.
