Recently, Halo developer 343 Industries teamed up with American shoe company Wolverine to launch a linkage boot. This boot is based on Wolverine’s Hellcat style.
Comments keep coming in asking to bring this style of boot to life, says Wolverine. Now after nearly a year of designing and collaborating, Wolverine and the 343i have officially responded to fans’ requests.
The boots are the Master Chief’s green, rugged and worn looking, with the Master Chief’s Spartan number 117 and the UNSC insignia on them. It also bears the logo of the Materials Group, a division of the Office of Naval Intelligence that developed the Mjolnir-powered assault armor worn by the Spartans.
Given our roots in military sci-fi, we often hear from our fans that they are interested in boots inspired by the Master Chief. So when Wolverine reached out to us about a partnership, we were ready to answer the call,” John Friend, director of consumer products for Halo and Xbox at 343.
The limited-edition boots give Halo fans the opportunity to step into the Halo universe with the Master Chief’s feet (boots) into their everyday lives, and we’re eager to see what fans are saying about the collaboration and upcoming collaboration as our partnership with Wolverine. Response to the official release.
The chance to become the Master Chief will be limited to a very small number of Halo fans. Not because of the price, but because only 117 pairs of the limited-edition boots were produced. It’s unclear how the boots will share the purchase, but it’s safe to say they’ll be available soon.
