Nintendo and Vans may have teamed up to produce some special gaming-themed shoes, but none of them can hold a candle to the monstrosities fresh new designs our readers came up with.
While Vans may only be producing Nintendo related kicks, our ‘shop contest was open to anything and everything to do with gaming. Not that that stopped most folks from designing shoes based on one of the Big N’s franchises. In the end EatonCorvinus’s pun-tacular “Pikashoe” just couldn’t be beat.
Not going to lie, I was a little worried that no one would participate as this was a “special edition” ‘shop contest that only lasted about two days. You all proved me wrong and I couldn’t be happier.
