Madfoot Oboi

High top sneakers and of course ankle and lace straps are all the rage these days. It was only a matter of time for Japanese brand Madfoot to also get into the mix. Together with Omarion they created the Madfoot Oboi. The high top sneaker comes in several colorways, featuring suede and leather uppers, as well as ankle and lace straps.

When first seeing the sneaker, we thought “ok, another one”. The design is not new, the colors are nothing special and let’s be honest – the market could do without these. We used to feature Madfoot a lot more and recently just felt like the brand did not understand the current trend in the market of more subtle colors. The crazy colors, materials and styles that worked so well for them a year ago, just do not work for us anymore today. Having that in mind, the Madfoot Oboi is actually not that bad – it is at least clean in terms of design. If it will find a customer, we will have to see. Look out for a release this summer.

Take a look at more colorways of the Madfoot Oboi after the jump.
