The classic orange and black Halloween shoe that never goes out of style. The sneakers have a premium black overlay and an orange swoosh.

This Halloween shoe is a tribute to the villain of Nightmare on Elm Street, Freddy Kruger. However, Nike did not receive official permission to release the shoes by New Line Cinema for using Freddy as the inspiration. As a consequence, the shoes were never meant to come out in the market. However, 20 pairs of shoes got out in a Mexico store and were sold. The pair has a legendary presence in the sneaker market.

Retailed at $180
