Whether it bea t-shirt with Charmander on,a Dragonite-shaped handbag, or evena massive Slowpoke plushyou can drag behind you by its tail. Hey, I’m not recommending it, but it’s an option. If you’d prefer to rep your love for Pokemon in a more convenient way, and spend a lot less money in the process, then maybe just grab a pair of these Gengar hi-tops.
The new Pokemon sneakers are available exclusively at Hot Topic, and unlike the aforementioned Dragonite bag and Slowpoke plush, you won’t need to break the bank to own a pair. Available in sizes five to 11, the Gengar hi-tops are priced at just $44.90. If you want to save even more money, there’s an option to have the sneakers shipped to your local Hot Topic, cutting out the cost of shipping that will be added to your total if you have them delivered to your home.
The sneaker design puts a smiling Gengar on the tongue, one of the most popular Pokemon of the more than 1,000 created - that’s a fact and not an opinion based on my preferences and the many Gengar t-shirts I own. The Pokemon’s name can be found on the back of each of the sneakers, and the rest of the hi-tops' design is modeled after Gengar’s color scheme. Plenty of purple with a red and black Pokeball design covering most of the sneakers.
