    AKEDO X Transformers Signature High Top - Black / White

    Exclusively designed by Melbourne artist Florey our latest Transformers apparel range is perfect for any Transformer fanatic. Particularly focusing on the 1980's film release these designs link to the specific time period through the popular geometric style design from the time.

    Crafted with a gum rubber sole and toe cap in tonal black, the high-top has a well-loved classic aesthetic. It’s finished with a tonal lace-up fasten and branded tab to the rear.

    I had fun designing these shoes for Zavvi. They were my backup design, but happy they’ve made it to market.

    I'm not going to lie I personally wouldn't wear these but I must admit these are 1,000 times better than them ugly ass thrown away candy wrappers ass looking Optimus and Megatron shoes. I can definitely see older ppl or just people in general rocking these much more. Like in all honesty shout out to the person that designed these

    I usually don\'t dig on these sorts of branded merch collaborations, but this one works for me.

    If they weren\'t a limited run and probably not available in my size, I\'d rock these.

    YouTube (Legacy):
    Bingo. I was just at the mall with my wife telling her I desperately needed new shoes, and for the first time ever I might get high top converse. Then this drops, a pair of TF shoes I can actually see an adult man wearing. And for only $60. Heck yeah, that\'s what I\'d pay for a normal pair anyways. The only catch? Im a size 10.5, and they only come in 10 or 11.

    Half sizes are a lie. I'm either an 8, 9, or 10 depending on brand, lol

    Will these ship to the US? I think Zavvi is UK based iirc. These are Transformers shoes I actually think are really neat (I haven't really liked any of the others).
