The Boxtrolls x Nike Roshe Run "Trollstrikes"

To promote the upcoming release of 3D animated movie The Boxtrolls, Nike has released an extremely limited run of Roshe Run “Trollstrikes” in adult and youth sizes to be sold by way of online auction. An original design by Tinker Hatfield, the silhouette takes on a whimsical feel, with the upper being an amalgamation of distressed leather and burlap overlay resting on a cobblestone-printed midsole and a waffle-patterned outsole. The details are equally imaginative, such as the twine heel loop and laces, iridescent “sewer-green” heel panels, distressed Nike Swoosh logo, cardboard tongue label, steampunk lace locks and cheese-print sockliners. This is not Nike’s first movie-footwear collaboration, with a notable example being the Coraline Dunk which has since become a valuable collector’s item.
