New Batman Sneakers! ACI International has just recently created three different styles, each featuring one of three DC Comics characters - Superman, Batman, and The Joker. The shoes retail for $110 per pair. Not too bad a price for designer sneakers.The shoe I am focusing on here, in this post, is the Batman Sneaker. ( I'll have some nice sharp photos of The Joker shoes in another post ). It will be limited to only 1,939 pairs ( that number is special because it's the year of the very first appearance of the character - 1939 ). The quality of the design looks pretty excellent. Shoe companies usually go kinda overboard when they design "comic book character" shoes but these are tastefully done. The shoe is all black with some gray & yellow accents. The rubber sole is bright yellow which is kinda cool. On the tongue is a yelow label with nice Batman artwork. The sides of the shoe show a picture of Batman with Gotham City in the background. There is also some black leather with the word "Batman" embossed in a repeated pattern. On the backs of the shoe the names "Bruce" & "Wayne" are on each individual shoe so when you look at them it reads, "Bruce Wayne". That's actually kinda clever. There is also a black "Bat-Logo" stitched on the side, near the front. Even the shoe box is well designed as the lid features original art by Jim Lee.
