Fashion: Additional Shoes Inspired By “The Simpsons” Released By ADIDAS
Following the recent success of the Krusty the Klown inspired ZX1000s that came out earlier this year, ADIDAS has two new shoes on the way inspired by The Simpsons. At the end of April, ADIDAS dropped the Squishee shoe (retails for $100) inspired by Kwik-E-Mart’s famed beverage of the same name. Then on May 12th, we’re getting the ZX1000 line of Flaming Moe’s (retailing for $120).
A Squishee-inspired design on the adidas Superstar shoes. A lace jewel honors the favorite beverage, and the sockliner calls out the Kwik-E-Mart. A transparent tongue completes the look.
These adidas x The Simpsons ZX 1000 shoes pay homage to a very special beverage. A Flaming Moe jewel decorates the laces, and a flame graphic shines under the bright orange 3-Stripes.
Designed to mimic an aluminum beer, the shoe features a glossy synthetic exterior in red, gold, and silver, with the thick black piping continuing the illustrative effect seen in the other Simpsons adidas shoes. The Duff Beer brewery logo appears on the tongue, while the can itself is front and center as a lace dubrae, similar to the other shoes in the collection. Releases May 19th for $120.

"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
