To complement the earlier Evangelion unit 01 watch, and even the Evangelion official underwear, Eva Store has revealed that they will also be selling a line of sneakers.
The shoes, with a design based on Shinji Ikari’s Evangelion unit 01, are dubbed “EVA-supernova01: Unit 01 Model” and will go on sale August 12th for ¥12,800.
Their website also shows pictures of the prototype, where ABC-Mart, King Records, and Achilles all worked together to develop the “Footstep Instrumentality Project”.
It seems even after 14 years the Evangelion series is proving a veritable mint for Gainax and company, with all kinds of hit products, even now. The latest remake of the property threatens to unleash a new wave of products…

I wonder what Shinji thinks of these...
He thinks? I thought he just do as he is told
Eva underpants eva shirt eva socks eva dakimak- wait wha?
I'm going to wear that butt naked.
I hate wearing shoes but I'd totally buy these.
if the shoes goes berserk,eats anything who gets in its way.Whiny,angst-ridden teen not included.
when i put this sneaker. . will i can do some berserk mode? :3
you dont need the shoes for that....
just do what any berserk would do, grab anything that could be used as a weapon and just go on a killing spree!
do want! i mean come on the look prety fucking tight. but yeah gainax must need mony.
looks really cool! specially when your cosplaying as "the devil"(aka eva:01)
but seriously id wear them...
Footstep instrumentality? All our feet will become one? Ew.
not available in my size :(
This is is made of some confusing alloy of sort of Retarded Win.
Will these shoes make me a badass like Shinji?
badass Shinji?
WHAT!?
Gainax needs more money
Then it'll be evagelion pants, evangelion jackets, evangelion bike helmet...
The first time I saw the EVA units feet I said to myself cool if they where shoes, now that thought has come true!
This beats those #4000 xbox shoes hands down :D
Cool collectibles but I wouldn't be caught dead wearing these.
I figure MP eva sneakers would look fairly classy.
Evangelion : Just do it.
More like 'Evangelion: Running Away'.
Evangelion: Mustn't run away.
For me, it's Asuka: Just Do Her.
Looks so "Made in China"-ish (´∀`)
Unit 01 made in China.
wait, EVA was built in China?!?! No wonder EVA lost too many times...
Great. Now all I need is a matching track suit XD
Ah shit, its the emo unit. I guess I would have to buy the Unit 00 one or wait for the Mass produced one, I can fly with thoes.
(DO NOT GET ME STARTED ON THE TSUNDERE ONE, it would be torn up after 5 mins)
duh they sure know how to make money on it...
What's next ? a Nerv Shampoo ? Shinji Dutch wife ?? (the last one would make me so lol)
Do not really want, these sneakers look too flashy for me i'd feel like an astronaut on a mission to the moon with these, the pantsus nerv at the contrary made me laugh when they announced it so i'd prefer to buy them instead of those sneakers...
Just for alliteration it needs to be Seele Shampoo.
Damn it, stop making me want nonexistent products like that Shinji Dutch wife!
Bringing 8o's fashion back in style. Nice.
hmm wonder what next .. Eva unit 1 Diner Sut?
Well, somewhere on the internet, they have the Lilith dinner set.
Yes! DO WANT!
http://www.gainax.co.jp/eaw/work_02.html
Do want?
Yes I want:to go hunting lolis and to run away the police!
Do want!
Do not want! That thing is a FAIL! Whats next "Evangelion briefs"?
Shopped!
Who wouldn't want to look like an Eva?!
It was already sold
http://www.sankakucomplex.com/2009/03/15/evangelion-pantsu/
What just Shoes and Underwear?
I'll pass...
If they have a suit,Hat,Mask,Jeans,Socks,Gloves...
oh and a tie,watch,Gun,Bubblegum,Condoms,Earmuffs,Helmets
AND MANY MORE!!!!!!
No.
I'd look like a walking evangel---- on the other hand, yes. :D
Exactly my thoughts.
yeah, i thought the same way.
You need those shoes if you're running away from an eva-mon...
http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/19483/crossover-eva_01-kasumi_-pokemon-neon_genesis_evan
You mustn't run away...
You mustn't run away...
Gotta catch them all?
C-C-Combo Breaker!!
Every challenge along the way
With courage I will face
I will battle everyday
To claim my rightful place!
Come with me, the time is right!
There's no better team
Arm and arm, we'll win the fight!
It's always been a dream!
Our hearts so true~
Our courage will pull us through!
(´∀`)
you teach me and ill teach you! OTAKUMONNNNNN ~~~~
Tehee wanna get me one of those.
Do they come with the souls (or should i say soles?) of dead mothers embedded in them? I hear those are great for arch support.
is there a berserk version of the shoe? where it has the awesome teeth that can bite down angels?
i wonder if they will ship out?
i would rock those while i train.
People who'd say they want these... would you rock the hell out of them at school? if you still go to school?
XD back in my day we rode dudes who had ugly shoes - but i could never understand the dudes who picked on other dudes about their shoes was the ones in the group who had on like mix matched color jordans which are ugly as hell
Those kicks are actually pretty fly
Am i the only one that bursted out loling unlike the other "do want" people here?
No, I'm pretty sure a lot of us lol'd, while some of us died on the inside (again).
Although, I wouldn't mind getting them if they had an internal step counter that would track your steps per second, and every time the rate was high enough it would (loudly) make the mecha running sound effect. -kucchu kucchu-
they seem really light weight.
the colors can always be changed with good dye.
and my uncle works a shoe repair shop.
so rebuilding and strengthening is not an issue.
What they don't tell you is that it's meant for otaku's who can't move on their own. These shoes are tethered to a power source and move someone in a confined area, typically between tv, comp, and bathroom. Maybe the occasional landline phone to order take out.
Is their a matching body suit sold seperatley?
I didnt know that Nerv is located in China?
Its looks flimsy... look how it sags.
The color schemes too flashy. The quality looks suspect too, but that's probably a result of the photos.
Damn it, do want. I bet they don't make them in my size, though. Curse my comically overgrown Western feet!
that's such a terrible color scheme to me.
Idk if i'd rock these I might just buy some snd put them on ice...i'd hella rock them if they were made into some dunks or Sb'S...
Shinji Dutch Wife? Naaah, should be Shinji Dutch Husband!!!!!
I think the idea was that Shinji is a dickless whiny boy, therefor only good for Buttsex.
Thank you, Captain Obvious!
Not sure if want.
