Adidas' purported Game of Thrones sneakers aren't bloody enough
The shoes in these leaked images are awfully clean looking.
The final season of Game of Thrones is coming this spring, and with it so might these sneakers.
Adidas Ultra Boost line may include six sneakers designed after houses and groups of characters from the show, according to images and detail posted Tuesday by Sneaker News. These will include the Night's Watch, the White Walkers, House Targaryen, Daenerys' dragons, House Stark and House Lannister.
A representative for Adidas said the images are "unofficial" and that they "cannot confirm any details about the collaboration at this time."
For a show that's filled with death and brutal murders, the shoes in the leaked images are awfully clean-looking. For instance, the shoes based on the White Walkers are white with a tint of blue and nary a hint of red to go with how bloodthirsty those monsters can be.
Perhaps a sneaker based on a photo actress Maisie Williams put on Instagram last July would be more fitting. In it, the actress says goodbye to her character with white sneakers that are stained with red. While it's unlikely her character would wear sneakers (combat boots are more her style), she added "#lastwomanstanding" to that post, possibly hinting that she's one of the final characters to survive in the series.
The final season of Game of Thrones is set to premiere on April 14.
