Halo has come to the world of footwear, with Halo Infinite developer, 343 Industries, partnering with shoemaker Wolverine to produce a limited edition boot inspired by Master Chief himself.

The officially licensed shoe is designed to riff off the classic color, shape, and style of Master Chief’s armor in Halo Infinite. That means it's shaped to look like armor plating, colored a military green, decked out with the United Nations Space Command insignia, and emblazoned with the number 117 (Chief's Spartan number) on its heel.

It also features the Materials Group logo on its outsole, as a nod to the in-game manufacturers of Master Chief’s Mjolnir armor. The shoe itself is made of full-grain leather, though, rather than a titanium alloy.

It’ll cost you a pretty penny, too. You’ll need to splash out $225, which is about £170 / AU$300, to grab them, although Wolverine doesn't usually ship outside the US. With only 117 pairs being made the likelihood you’ll be able to pick them up is pretty slim.

According to a press release, the boot didn’t start its life as an official Halo shoe. Fans reckoned another of Wolverine’s designs – the Hellcat – looked like something out of the Halo universe and asked for an official, licensed version. After a year in the design room, the final product is here.

“The limited-edition boot gives Halo fans a chance to step inside (the boots) to become Master Chief and bring the Halo universe
