Ugliest Sneakers Of All Time!

What are thoseeee? We don’t wanna know.

Some shoes aren’t for everybody, but these ones certainly are for nobody. Here’s a look at some of our favourite ugliest shoes of all time:

Supreme x Nike Air Foamposite One
Supreme and Nike went hard on this one. Unfortunately, a little too hard. For this collab, Supreme decided to ditch it’s usual minimalistic design to go for something bold. A cultural icon of footwear and street fashion since the shoe’s inception, the Foamposite 1 got a Victorian era spin which made the shoe look as gaudy as it gets. “Doth mother know you weareth her drapes?”, but make it a Victorian era inspired supreme collab, and boom! Sold out. 

Nike Air Max 95 Z
I mean, where the f*** should we really even start? The colourway? The zip replacing the laces? The whole shoe, maybe? Back in 2002, Nike made the bad decision of changing the design of one of their most popular silhouettes, the Air Max 95. The zipper that covered up the laces, replacing the traditional lacing system, was meant to give the shoe a smooth flowing finish. We appreciate the effort, Nike. But this ain’t it, chief.

Staples x Clarks “Tawyer”
Give a 3 year old a paper and a pair of scissors and the result is somewhat similar. While it seems like the designers were going for a sophisticated look on this one, it probably got lost in translation, or maybe through the ugly cuts in the shoe. Mr. Pigeon, we liked you better on the dunks. 

Adidas Kobe 2
Is it a sneaker? Is it a sock, or a clothing iron? Some kicks for your date on the moon with Bezos, perhaps? We don’t know. And it looks like Kobe didn’t wanna know either. The basketball legend said goodbye to Adidas shortly after the release of these beauties. Yikes. 

Reebok Preacher
These t-rex inspired sneakers have rightfully earned its name on this list. While Shaquille O’Neal rocked these in 1996 for the Atlanta Olympics where the team ended up winning gold, their value starts and ends there. These sneakers are rather painful to look at.

Adam Brandejs’ Animatronic Flesh Shoe
We saved the best one’s for the last! These horrifying sneakers should probably come with a trigger warning. But since we saw these, you need to see it too. These shoes were created using latex models taken from the artist’s own skin, with some added hair to make it look more real. What’s even more disturbing is the fact that it comes with internal motors to twitch and pulse to make it look like it’s actually alive. We’re all for artistic expression, but what in the world?!
