MSCHF introduces its latest iteration of the Gobstomper sneaker model with the Jimmy Fallon Edition, made in collaboration with the talk show host. The original shoes were made with inspiration from the classic Gobstopper har candies and the new shoe was showcased on the Tonight Show.
It has a skate silhouette but upon wear and year, it unveils four layers of color, similar to the sweet trat. The upper has a grey suede material at the base foundation and is secured with zig-zag flat laces on top. It has a branded label by the tongue tag and a perforated mudguard in brown for breathability. Comic logos can be seen at the back side of the midsoles and rounded out with vertical grooves by the toe.
