A Twitter user started a thread on Monday morning that compared popular sneakers ranging from the Nike Dunk High “Wu Tang” from 1999 to the Nike Air Max LeBron 8 “South Beach” to a wide variety of bird species. The colorways of some sneakers matched the “colorways” of some of the birds to a ‘T’ and resulted in some hilarious comparisons.

While the original poster left it at 12 comparisons, other users got in on the fun too. The comparisons weren’t limited to just birds, though, with a user comparing a PUMA sneaker to an orca. So, if you’ve ever been wondering what bird your pair of Air Jordan 1s looks most like, look no further.

Scroll through below to see some of the best comparisons, and check out the full thread here.
