Designed to celebrate the upcoming Super Mario Bros movie opening on April 5, the premium workboot brand, Red Wing, unveiled a one-of-a-kind prototype replica of the cartoon character’s iconic boots. Red Wing revealed them to the world at Nintendo New York on the occasion of MAR10 Day. According to the release, Red Wing “worked with the film’s creative team to translate every on-screen pixel into a real-life stitch. They include “durable, natural leather and slip-resistant treads.”
While Mario’s boots are expertly crafted from Red Wing leather, with a reinforced toe box and rounded heel, the heel pad is made with state-of-the-art mushroom-infused materials celebrating Mario’s signature abilities.
Right now, these are a one-of-a-kind creation. But perhaps someday soon Mario fans will be able to walk around town showing off their Mario boots. The boots will be on display at Nintendo’s flagship store at New York’s Rockefeller Center through April.
