The Horror II: Revenge of Tetris Shoes!
Posted by Michael McWhertor at 10:40 AM on May 10, 2008
The Year of the Video Game Shoe continues, this time courtesy of Puma who have inflicted two additional Tetris themed kicks on the footwear buying public. While these two are certainly not as horrendous as the Disc Blaze re-issues already released—if only for the fact that that particular shoe is an eyesore by design—the RS100 and First Round EX entries in the Tetris pack are going to more than likely attract the wrong kind of attention.
I'll stick my Nike SB 720s thank you very much, Mr. Puma! In fact, I'm off to Brooklyn Projects to acquire! Have a good weekend.

These are barely Tetris themed at all!
Like seriously, it took me a full two minutes to see past the '80s extravaganza and see the tiny, miniscule little Tetris blocks along the bottom that NOBODY's gonna notice.
Your average passerby isn't going to see that they're Tetris-themed, so these shoes are, in my eyes, an epic failure.

Id only get tetris themed shoes if the played the tetris theme. Like every step could play another little bit of the song. If they did, I would order 400 pairs for me and everyone I know. It would be awesome.
Unfortunately these shoes dont do that and look gaudy as hell.

I love Puma First Rounds, but those are hideous. I'm not into the whole retro, highlighter colors. There are people, however, that like stuff like that, like this guy:

Dear god.....
Is it just me, or every time I just look at this photo (the yellow stripe with tetris pieces on it) really put stress and starts to hurt my eyes???

No words can accurately describe the immense hatred I am feeling right now, but it might sound somewhere along the lines of...
"BGSWGHBG WGA EGWSB AGAEWH AHB AHEBNB REHANRB N ZBBN NDZHNHH DR HDN DZH HS RHSBNH SBS ZGRDBB S!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Followed by many many abdominal spasms followed by a the tetris long piece bursting out of my chest crying in extreme pain and agony. Shortly there after, it will die with a final disturbing scream that will bring forth thousands of armies of unholy warriors that will bring death to everyone and everything on this planet.

Why would you collect Puma shoes?. Cannot Compute...
Fugly, looks like a adolescent ate a play-doh set and barfed over an imitation AF1s.

Those look hot. Sexy, even.
You guys obviously have no style, or are scared to think your own thoughts.

@Malvolio the Magician:
Thing is, that doesn't remind me a bit of tetris, other from the shapes. Even then the shapes are so freaking small...

You nerds aren't very fashion-forward.
Those are great. I want a pair of the high-tops.
