“At Skechers, we wanted to honor their [essential workers] dedication with a legendary Marvel shoe collaboration that offers these professionals our signature style, protection and comfort,” says Michael Greenberg, president of Skechers about the latest collection in a press release.
Each style is inspired by different Marvel characters — including the Avengers — and features soft memory sole insoles for all-day comfort. The shoes also feature steel toes, to keep them more durable and to protect your feet form any falling objects.
One of our favorite designs is this Spider-Man-inspired sneaker. It got cooling memory foam to keep your feet from overheating and a slip resistant build, allowing you to wear them even in bad weather. It’s also got a comic-book-style black and white color tone with web decals throughout. You can even see the official Marvel and Skecher logo on the front of the shoe.
