Thinkgeek sells an 8-bit tie so you can show your classic cred at work. Now Puma is pushing 8-bit shoes so you can show the love when you’re not so buttoned down. They’re just about the geekiest shoes I’ve ever seen.

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.

Combinations of the two should be a sure thing for me, then, but in this case, no, no it is not. Puma are re-releasing two versions of their old Disc Blaze sneaks in the Spring, only this time, with a Tetris theme. Not, as you’d be forgiven for thinking, an “opening credits of the Fresh Prince of Bel Air” theme. Puma Disc Blaze 1990s Tetris Pack [Kicksonfire]
