Resisting the urge to plaster the shoes with character likenesses and tacky logos, the two pairs – based on Chun-Li and Ryu – simply use the colour schemes of two of Street Fighter’s most iconic characters.
There’s no official confirmation on these from either Nike or Capcom, so don’t get your credit cards out just yet, but we have a good feeling these are the real deal.
