Now, I'm not really a sneakerhead... you know people that collect shoes. If we are talking hats then yes I am a huge collector! I have way too many hats than I know what to do with. But, anyways I think the people that bought these shoes need Jesus, and I'm not talking about the shoes either!
A design company called MSCHF in Brooklyn just released a new limited-edition line of Nikes called "Jesus Shoes." And they're filled with holy water, according to the New York Post.
As shown above, the shoes are white '97 Air Max Nikes with a crucifix weaved into the laces, frankincense-scented insoles, and turquoise-tinted holy water from the Jordan River injected into the see-through air bubble above the soles.The shoes also have "MT 14:25" printed on them, and for those that aren't religious that's a reference to Matthew 14:25, which is the Bible passage about Jesus walking on water. Which makes total sense for these shoes.
The people at MSCHF say they wanted to make a statement about how crazy, quote, "collab culture" has gotten. Quote, "We were wondering, what would a collab with Jesus Christ look like?" By the way, the shoes aren't endorsed by Nike. If you're wondering how much a pair of these shoes cost... $3,000-a-pair, get this, they sold out immediately.
