Donald Glover & The Clermont Twins Wear MSCHF’s New Backwards Sneaker

by

Big Red Boot season may be over but fear not sneakerheads, MSCHF has another wild design that’s sure to be seen everywhere this summer. The BWD Shoe is a multi-colour sneaker that offers owners two ways to slide their foot inside – one of which obviously resembles a backwards model. Photos of the product surfaced online late last month, and now, some of our favourite stars have been seen wearing them out and about. Among them is Donald Glover, who stepped out for the Brooklyn Nets vs. Orlando Magic game on Friday (April 7) in his fresh kicks.

While his footwear certainly stood out for its abnormal nature, the rest of the Swarm creators outfit allowed him to (mostly) blend in with the crowd. Glover donned a white tee with a QR code printed on it, a Hawaii cap, and classic blue jeans. He also carried a tan leather jacket with him, later draped over his leg while watching the NBA players tear up the court. The multi-talent’s public appearance in the MSCHF shoes comes just days before their quickly approaching official release on April 11.

Others who got their hands on a pair of the BWD Shoe early include the Clermont Twins, who showed theirs off in their usual thirst-trappy fashion on Instagram. “BADDIES COME IN TWOS👯‍♀️,” the sisters wrote in their caption, almost perfectly mimicking the twin emoji with their stance. Aside from the MSCHF sneakers, both Shannon and Shannade wore pink and white crew socks to their mid-calves, as well as tiny black lingerie sets, which markedly exposed their underboob. Finally, they completed their look with large cross chains covering their chests.

Over the next few days, it’s entirely likely we’ll see more stars sporting the BWD model, similar to the rollout that came along with the Big Red Boots earlier this year.

MSCHF’s Big Red Boots Followed By Wild New Backwards Sneakers: Photos

by

It’s been a minute since we’ve seen any celebrities rocking MSCHF’s Big Red Boots. However, the Brooklyn-based collective is about to be back with a vengeance when their latest design makes its way into the hands of consumers. Earlier this week, the brand unveiled its new BWD Shoe. It’s designed so that owners can insert their foot into either the front or back. Wearing it the normal way will surely earn you lots of compliments. If you want to stand out, though, the way to go is by stepping out in a seemingly backward pair of sneakers.

As TMZ notes, the actual fit of the shoes remains unclear. Stock photos circulating online make it seem as though wearing them in the optical illusion style would feel more like a sandal than a traditional sneaker. The unique design obviously isn’t for everyone, though they’re already receiving an enthusiastic response online. They have yet to be promoted by any celebrities on social media. Still, we won’t be surprised to see MSCHF roll out another star-studded marketing campaign for the BWD Show in the coming weeks.

MSCHF’s New BWD Shoe

As you may recall, Ciara and Iggy Azalea both donned the Big Red Boots earlier this year. The former paired hers with a Michael Jackson shirt while dancing in the mirror. The latter showed off even more skin in a tiny red thong and a white t-shirt. Others to step out in the viral shoes include Pardison Fontaine, Lil Wayne, and Fivio Foreign, who was heavily clowned for his look at the time.

MSCHF’s BWD Shoe will drop on April 11th. It will be available for purchase exclusively on the brand’s website or the MSCHF Sneakers app. The price for the fashion-forward runners is $135. They’ll reportedly only be on sale for a one-hour window beginning at 2 PM ET. The cost is far lower than the Big Red Boots, which sold for $350, though it’s likely they’ll end up running eager shoppers far higher amounts on resale sites. Do you plan to snag yourself a pair?
