The Pokemon Company and Japanese shoe brand Spingle Company are collaborating to release sneakers based on popular characters. They will be available until July 24, 2023 and will ship out some time in mid-December 2023. You can order them via the Pokemon Center Online. Since the Pokemon Center in Japan doesn’t offer international shipping, overseas customers will need to make use of a proxy service. [Thanks, Dengeki Online!]

In total, there are six types of Pokemon sneakers available. You can get footwear that draw inspiration from Dragapult, Tyranitar, Milotic, Sylveon, Umbreon, and Lucario. Aside from the design, the shapes of the shoes vary depending on the Pokemon. The Dragapult and Tyranitar shoes are high top sneakers compared to the Milotic ones, which look closer to flats. All of the sneakers use the patterns and color schemes of the Pokemon they’re based on. You can check out the Pokemon sneakers from Spingle Company here:
