Welcome to Is This Shoe OK?, an infrequent column about shoes that may or may not be good, as determined by me—an authority, because I own shoes—and you, in the comments below. In today’s installment, we’re looking at an interesting take on religious wear: the $3000, sold out “Jesus shoe.”
, these shoes are actually beautiful—a crisp white color adorned by a crucifix, a pool-blue color highlighting the heavenly elixir within. I kind of get the appeal. I just don’t three thousand dollars get it?The Vatican has mad style if you really look at it—dope engravings, crazy hats, everything blinged out with gold—so we wanted these shoes to allude to that.
The seal on the box is modified from the official Papal Seal, and the angel on the box is excerpted from Albrecht Durer’s 1514 engraving Melencolia I. Here’s the thing: these are needlessly expensive, and if I’m remembering my childhood spent in Sunday school correctly, holy water is easily acquired—all you need is some regular H2O, blessed by a priest or some other clergy member. However, blatant displays of wealth feel distinctly un-Christian to me, and at a price that could pay my rent for a couple months... a waste of money? Let us not forget that these are Nike sneakers, too, a company infamous for theirin their sweatshops.
