These real-life Halo boots can be yours for $225 and a lot of luck

pcgamer.com:

If you have $225 laying around, a need for some new boots, and a commitment to Halo fandom that has an unfortunate tendency to override good sense, then these new Master Chief-inspired clodhoppers from American footwear manufacturer Wolverine might be just the thing.

The new boots, based on Wolverine's Hellcat boot, are being developed in partnership with Halo studio 343 Industries, a collaboration that came together after fans began pointing out that the gear looked like something lifted from the Halo universe.

«Comments rolled in asking the brand to make the boots a reality,» Wolverine said. «Now, after nearly a year of design and collaboration, Wolverine and 343 Industries are answering the call.»

The boots are Master Chief green (I don't know what the tone is officially called), appropriately rugged and worn-looking, and emblazoned with 117, the Master Chief's Spartan number, and the insignia of the UNSC—United Nations Space Command. It also bears the logo of the Materials Group, the division of the Office of Naval Intelligence that developed the Mjolnir Powered Assault Armor worn by Spartans.

«Given our roots in military science fiction, we've often heard from our fans that there is an appetite for a boot inspired by the Master Chief. So, when Wolverine approached us about a collaboration, we were ready to answer the call,» said John Friend, 343's director of Halo and Xbox consumer products. 

«The limited-edition boot gives Halo fans a chance to step inside (the boots) to become Master Chief and bring the Halo universe into their everyday life, and we're eager to see how fans react to the collaboration and forthcoming launches as part of our partnership with Wolverine.»

Alas, the opportunity to «become Master Chief»
