  • The long-awaited “Clerks” Kevin Smith etnies shoes went on sale exclusively on their web site, and are selling so fast we’re not even sure any will be left by the time you’re reading this. Hurry on over to grab your size while you still can. Etnies were kind enough to provide a pair of these rare kicks for preview, and here’s our thoughts.

    First off, let’s talk about the style and look. The “Clerks” Jameson takes etines popular Jameson style and adds some cool, yet subtle touches.

    Of particular note is of course the “Clerks.” font which appears on the outsides of each shoe. The folks at Etnies have also taken that font for their own logo which appears across the tongue. The deep black color fits very well with the look of the shoe and makes them stylish for every wardrobe. Other than the text, the design is very subtle and basic, which should make for a pretty versatile shoe that can fit with any wardrobe style.

    Last, but certainly not least, the insides of the shoe, when placed together, feature a glimpse at an iconic moment from the “Clerks” film, of Jay and Silent Bob against the stores. Obviously you won’t see this while wearing them, but you’ll know it’s there — And it’s an extra conversation piece if you wanna show them off to your pals. Make sure you’ve got on clean socks and fresh feet first, of course.

    How about the comfort level? Well, we’re happy to say these shoes not only look good, they feel great. Jamesons are one of etnies’ most popular and comfortable shoes, so this line was the perfect fit for adopting as a custom Kevin Smith shoe — Their trademarked STI foam makes these the most comfortable pair of shoes I’ve ever walked in. Construction is durable, making it feel like these things would take some abuse pretty well — But let’s face it, these things are too cool to abuse too much. They’re best reserved for special occasions. Once they’re gone, it’s not like you’ll be able to nab yourself a replacement pair.

    These beauties are available in very limited supply (we hear only 300 pairs were crafted) and when they’re gone, that’s it. Even if your size is out of stock, it might be worth picking up a pair just to collect them. They are indeed the first and only pair of shoes custom designed for the Askewniverse.

    Watch this space for some exclusive photos of our preview pair later today.
