New Shoe Design – Monopoly ShoesI usually don’t get into posting things like this, but I saw a press release on Hasbro teaming up with Reebok to launch a line of Monopoly inspired shoes. I really liked the concept, so I thought it may spark some motivation and creative juices in others…
An interesting thought is how the color schemes of the shoes could be used to customize apparel. I have heard from very reputable sources that matching cad-cut film designs to shoe color schemes is very hot in retail settings. Go ahead and pick up a pair of shoes and show this option in your retail space or on your website.
Here is a link to a nice write up with lots of photos: Monopoly Shoes
Here is a photo of my favorite pair:
Goes well with Eco-Film Black and Metallic Silver. If you want to get real crazy, use the new Eco-Film Electric Metal with Black for an added effect.
The pair below would go nicely with an Eco-Film Green and White design.
If you have ever tried pairing t-shirt designs with shoe colors, post a comment and let us know how it worked. If you’d like to try this and need Eco-film color samples to take to the your local Footlocker, let me know and I’ll send you a swatch booklet of colors. Think of the possibilities of pairing up with a shoe store and launching a full fledged program $$$$.
