Def Leppard Tease Special Shoe (Seriously)
Tuesday, June 26, 2018 at 12:01AM Apparently Def Leppard has teamed up with luxury sneaker designer Six Hundred Four for a special, limited edition shoe celebrating... something.
According to the Six Hundred Four website, the company creates 604 pairs of limited edition shoes "based off an artist's art piece. Each pair is crafted with premium materials, while utilizing state of the art printers that effectively tattoo the art onto the shoes. This allows you to wear each pair comfortably and freely, not fearing the art will bleed, crack, or crumble away."
Six Hundred Four has a gallery in Vancouver where you can view (and presumably) buy the shoes. It will be interesting to see what the Def Lep shoes look like... and how much they cost.

To borrow from their cringey tag line: "Step inside, walk this way . . . who would buy these? Meh! Meh!"
@Him Walk Walk till you drop made me literally “laugh out loud” 👍👍
I agree, Gogmagog. They better tread carefully. With all this branding, they might gain some cash but lose their soles. At the very least, I hope they got Six Hundred Four to foot the bill for producing the shoes. Giggle.
(They soled their soles for rock &a roll...)
Except when you start thinking they’re only two steps behind Brett Michaels in the stupid licensing department.
Gogmagog (hilarious comment, Gog!) is right about the ridiculousness of the bulk of $immons licensing deals. But most of those are actually quite humorous compared to those of Michaels, who’s endorsement deals border on total absurdity, and not in a particularly funny way.
