What they should make is t-shirts with the shoe on it.

They don't have anything Metal Gear Solid related on them. Hell, they don't even use Metal Gear Solid-ish colours. I couldn't even see a Metal Gear Solid character wearing them. >_>

The only reason those sneakers are Metal Gear Solid "related" is the fact that you have to hide those shoes in a cardboard box so no one can ever see them.

Are you guys serious?

Legacy sounds familiar I think they made those ugly ass mario shoes from Run athletics or phat farm. Anyways I love joystiq and sneakers but I will tell you two things.

1.) those are janky as hell and have nothing to do with MGS

2.) Joystiq, your better than that. Cmon.

Sadly enough, I wouldn't buy Metal Gear themed sneakers, but I would buy a Metal Gear themed cardboard box.

Maybe they help with the sneaking and the neck snapping and the groin groping.

Well, at least they aren't as un-wearable as the Halo sneakers.

Jeebus...

As a serious skateboarder (and Metal Gear fan) who routinely drops $125+ on quality shoes, this dreck makes me want to vomit all over myself. Three cheers for 2-bit companies gloming onto the popularity of completely unrelated things.

Only thing I can think of them being related to mgs is that if you wore those to school you'd have to sneak around from class to class as to not get your @ss beat.
