Big in Japan Stuff: Puma’s Japanese Monster Pack

Posted on Wednesday, December 24th, 2008 by Hunter Stephenson

Puma has released a limited-edition series of sneakers entitled, Japanese Monster Pack, as an unofficial tribute to Japanese monster movies like Godzilla that were released by Toho back in the day. Each signature shoe lists the “Skills” and “Attributes” of the monster on the inner tongues, while the outer materials are textured after the respective Rampage-ers’ armor and skin. Kids today, mercy. Clockwise: Moth King (Mothra), Lizoid King (Godzilla), N/A (Mechagodzilla), Terror King (Ghidorah), Ape King (King Kong) (not pictured). Check out detailed close-ups of the outer tongues after the jump.

  • deathmetalhero
    I beg to differ previous posters; ever since my mom bought me a plastic godzilla when I was 4 and ever since me and my little bro spent countless hours of our youth watching godzilla movies,I have been/am into godzilla stuff and would wear any of those.
  • Spooky
    I would do a "Anakin Skywalker" to have some Ultraman shoes.....
  • Godzilla rules. But those are ugly :(
  • These are awesome. I love godzilla. I will be buying all of these.
  • i will not be buying any of these, because i dont like anything that has to do with fashion.. i do love godzilla though
  • The second one is damn cool. And I'm not into Gozilla so much btw.
  • Must get for X-mas........
  • ninja
    it's all about Mothra and King Ghidorah!
  • Boba Fat
    you can't do the two thumbs joke over the internet =[

    but damn..those shoes look sick. I wanna see the Kong one.
  • Need's some Jet Jaguar.
  • I don't think Puma creates good themed shoes. I'd much rather see a set of Nike dunks over Puma's. Then again, I probably wouldn't buy either just because it's not my cup of tea. They're not too bad though.
  • Forget Ultraman, why no love for Jet Jaguar!?
  • SWEET, thanks for the linkage

  • Guess who has two thumbs and is getting some kick ass shoes? This guy.
  • rayofthejungle
    They should model one out of Mathew Broderick.
  • I wonder what the King Apes look like.
  • These... are... awesome. Why do I have to find out about stuff like this an hour before Christmas day!!!!
  • ragtimepianist
