AMC's popular zombie show,
The Walking Dead will be releasing a pair of shoes this week from Puma which feature the newly popular Whisperers as a theme.
The new pair of shoes is going to be in stores in time for the finale to
The Walking Dead season 9, as they will be available in Foot Locker stores starting on Monday, March 25th, which is the beginning of the week leading up to the finale, surely a marketing move placed on purpose.
You can see that the shoes include artwork on the inside featuring Alpha, the leader of The Whisperers, which is the latest group of "villains" that our favorite apocalypse survivors are going up against following the death of Jesus halfway through the series. Artist Alexander-John had the following to say about the shoes.
"When I got the call about the project I knew the storyline of the Whisperers was going to play a very important role in how I brought this shoe to life. I love the simplicity of the concept and how the Whisperers hide in plain sight. I’ve done many product collaborations with Foot Locker over the years and this one is right up there with my all-time favorites. I hope these PUMA shoes take the show’s fans even deeper into the world of The Walking Dead.”
What do you think of these shoes? Would you be happy with some other
The Walking Dead inspired kicks or do you think this is a step too far? Let us know your thoughts in the comments and make sure not to miss the last two episodes of season 9!
The Walking Dead is an American post-apocalyptic survival series featuring a large ensemble cast of survivors of the zombie apocalypse, trying to stay alive from the near-constant threat of attacks from the mindless zombies, colloqially known as walkers. However, with the fall of humanity these survivors also face conflict from other living survivors who have formed groups and communities with their own sets of laws and morals, often leading to hostile conflict between the human communities.
The Walking Dead airs on AMC on Sunday nights at 9.
