Although these high-top tabi boots might look like an awesome pair to try out, the shoe design is reserved only for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Taking the crime-fighting cartoons into account, designers Quintin Williams and Hussain Almossawi created the shoes as an option for the fictional characters to don.
Looking like a sleek pair of kicks from the top, the shoes reveal that they're actually designed for two-toed amphibians upon closer inspection. The conceptual shoes have been designed in both a green and black option as well as a stark, all-white one.
The high-top tabi boots take on the aesthetics of several design methods to create a shoe design that, although only conceptual, would likely gain praise in the fashion industry if created.
