If you were to imagine what official Kingdom Hearts III boots would look like, you might imagine buckles, straps and chains. Plaid too, maybe!

That pretty much sums up these boots. Japanese clothing company Super Groupies, whose slogan is “Anime into Fashion!”, created this officially licensed footwear inspired by Sora, Riku, Kairi, Roxas, and Axel.

There are no real surprises, I think, and the Riku and Kairi ones are rather subtle in a tasteful way.

Those Kairi boots look like they’d fit in with a Aerith cosplay. Also, I fuck with those Roxas ones. They’re kinda weird but also interesting. I dig it.
