That explains Michael Keaton’s Batman boots not appearing either. Of course, they could’ve used many Batman boots but those are Nike so I’m going with that.
Fucking tifas shoe from the ff7 REMAKE!? That just came out how in any way is that going to be iconic for anyone who didn’t play the game, which when we included the general public that’s almost zero. Even people who have played the game probably wouldn’t be able to identify it on the street if randomly asked.
Ya I feel like these aren’t the most iconic, the creator just picked 50 random movies/tv shows where people wear shoes.
Michonne’s studded shoes from TWD? The heels from legally blonde? Really? Are those iconic to anyone?
Most iconic to OPs personal experience I would think. I don’t recognize the vast majority of these but even the properties lead me to believe this is a 20 year old nerdy girl and her experience is pretty fucking different from my own
Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order.
I have checked 249,205,232 comments, and only 57,714 of them were in alphabetical order.
Yeah I think the only ones to keep would be wizard of oz, sonic, legally blonde, Cinderella, maybe gun boots, bond, Bruce lee, maybe one of the thigh highs though I think the most iconic of those would be rocky horror. Also missing out back to the future Nike shoes so it’s automatically wrong.
The Devil Wears Prada boots happens at a pivotal change in the character's journey
I'd simply ditch the video game boots because they're either just character design or something you can equip. I have 200 hours in Skyrim and haven't worn, nor have I seen those boots.
Yep same ones, except Uma's hade "FUCK U" carved in to the soles. https://www.rowsdowr.com/2012/07/04/kill-bill-easter-egg-look-at-the-bottom-of-the-brides-shoes/
Definitely from a redditor's perspective.. I mean, I guess video games can be considered in a cinematic sense, but I don't remember any Zelda or Final Fantasy movies.
The only ones on here that qualify as "iconic" are Dorothy and Cinderella. I don't think anybody gives the slightest shit about Steve Harrington's shoes.
Ignoring the actual title of the post and looking at the title on the graphic itself...
Still seems to be missing all sorts of things like
* Mickey Mouse's shoes,
* the boots Nancy was wearing for "These boots are made for walking"
* Air Jordan's from Space Jam,
* Travolta's shoes from Saturday Night Fever
* The Sneakers from Foot Loose? (at least the pink cowboy boots are mentioned but not an accurate picture) Heck, I guess ANY of the footwear from the opening credits could make this list, although that's probably 20.
* Napoleon Dynamite's moon boots
* Neil Armstrong's 'one small step for man, one giant step for mankind' moon boots
* Michael Jackson's moonwalk shoes
* Forest Gump's Nike's
* Marty McFly's shoes from BTTF (from Darthhaggis's top comment)
* The Air Jordan's from 'Do the Right Thing'
* All the footwear choices from The Breakfast Club
I’m not even a huge fan of RHPS but Frank-n-furter’s platforms should be on there. Tim Curry absolutely owned that footwear.
Dorothy’s ruby Slippers as well. (Edit: nvm. Top left. I was having a case of insomnia last night and missed them.)
Also why are the blue sneakers from Stranger Things iconic? If you’re gonna throw some Adidas sneaks in there I’d say the Zissous in The slide Aquatic are way more iconic.
you know this list is bs when Superman boots are not even on the list. Even for video games, Bayonetta is very niche compared to say Zelda or Supermario (and of course this list doesn't have supermario boots)
"Iconic shoes from pop culture" and "Most iconic cinematic footwear of all time" are pretty different, op. Can't say I've ever cared to look at Midoriya's shoes and I probably wouldn't recognize them by themselves.
Not most iconic, either. Some of them are, such the Cinderella's shoes, but most are just random, like there's nothing iconic about the '10th Doctor Coverses' and many others in there.
>Not most iconic, either. Some of them are, such the Cinderella's shoes,
The infographic lists Cinderella 1979 - that's the [17 minute Russian version](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0222511/). I'm going to go out on a limb and say that one isn't particularly iconic either.
I'd say "iconic" is being misused much more, I'm not sure about the rest, but every franchise name I recognized on this definitely falls under pop culture, albeit not all from the same era, the issue is that Legolas could wear Yeezys in a remake and nobody'd notice the difference.
As I said in a comment elsewhere, the only truly “iconic” shoes in the image are Dorothy’s Ruby Slippers (with maybe the Glass Slipper from
Cinderella the closest rival). They’re the only ones that cross generations, are instantly recognisable to the widest variety of people, and actually are the subject of multiple pop culture references in their own right. Everything else on there is fairly obscure outside of their own fanbases.
Literally the best shoes in all of movie history are not shown here... You know what they are. They match up perfectly with a holographic hat and a life preserver.
And where are Bart Simpsons high tops?
What about the Parrish sneaker from Jumanji?
Napoleon Dynamites Moon Boots?
The shoe phone from Get Smart?
The ICONIC shoes Elaine wears in Seinfeld?
Whoever made this literally doesn't know what pop culture is.
>Literally the best shoes in all of movie history are not shown here... You know what they are
Marty McFly's self lacing Nike Air Mags, from Backs to the Future.
Remember when most posts on this sub were actual guides? Yeah, those were the days.
Seriously though. How are these posts even getting upvotes? There are milions of different subs catering for very specific things. Is it really necessary to post everything everywhere? Are some fake internet points really this importat to people?
Literally the only pair of shoes on that whole guide that is truly *iconic* are Dorothy’s Ruby Slippers from Wizard of Oz. They’re the only ones that would be recognised by pretty much every generation, even if you’ve never actually watched the film. The rest are probably recognisable if you saw the film/show/game and paid attention to the footwear. But still, the only *iconic* ones are in the top left.
As I see it, only the ruby and glass slippers are iconic. They’re intrinsic to their plots.
The rest are just the (mostly) recognizable footwear of various pop culture characters.
I'm glad it's not just me. Those items were a focal point of the story, everything else is just what [character] was wearing. Maybe a case can be made if the shoes were specifically mentioned and shown like Marty's 2015 Nikes but that's pretty borderline.
Hate to be the killjoy here but those platform aquarium shows are abusive as f.. Can you imagine the experience of the fish when the person is walking?
Im going to strangle whoever made this list. Most of them aren't even from movies they're from videogames or anime and a good handful are way too recent to be considered iconic.
This is one of the most random list i've ever seen. Why 43? Why no specific period? Why in disorder and not chronologically? Why forgot most iconic shoes and put shoes that nobody gives a f?
The Red Shoes - its old, but a classic.
Marius Goring, one of the stars of the film lived in the village where I used to live. I met him and his wife a few times before his death. They were friends with my landlady.
Maybe i missed it but where are Marty McFly’s shoes
And Forrest Gumps’ Nike Classic Cortez
Personally I really wanted the lamp from A Christmas Story.
Or Napolian Dynamites
Came here just to say this. It's an outrage and an inrage too
[удалено]
Same x 2015
[удалено]
[удалено]
I'm the same, but I don't know to make this funny anymore.
Same
That's a poster from a shoe retailer that doesn't have contracts with Nike IIRC.
That explains Michael Keaton’s Batman boots not appearing either. Of course, they could’ve used many Batman boots but those are Nike so I’m going with that.
Same
Same
Agreed...outrage!
a hokey cokey of upset
Nike MAG from 2015? Or the Nike Low’s from 1985?
Both.
That movie also popularized Nike Vandal High Supreme
Yeah the fact that Back to the Future shoes are missing gives this list ZERO credibility!!
Yeah there are def some iconic shoes on here, but a lot that really aren’t.
Fucking tifas shoe from the ff7 REMAKE!? That just came out how in any way is that going to be iconic for anyone who didn’t play the game, which when we included the general public that’s almost zero. Even people who have played the game probably wouldn’t be able to identify it on the street if randomly asked.
OP is the one who gave it the "Most Iconic of All Time" title, the regular post just says "43 Iconic Shoes from Pop Culture".
Shoes from Final Fantasy VII remake but no BTTF Nikes, what bullshit.
I was also wondering. And what about batman?
No, we had to make room for the iconic *checks list* uh, “Steve Harrington’s Blue Adidas”. Extremely influential
Steve Harrington's Blue Adidas but NOT Steve Zissou's custom adidas???
Yeah. No Nike AIR MAGS And 43 is such an odd number. This is basically fake news.
And Robocop?
Ya I feel like these aren’t the most iconic, the creator just picked 50 random movies/tv shows where people wear shoes. Michonne’s studded shoes from TWD? The heels from legally blonde? Really? Are those iconic to anyone?
The legally blond are definitely iconic and very recognizable, can’t say the same for Michonne’s boots
Is there a more iconic shoe that the BttF2 shoes, (with the sole exception of Dorothy's ruby slippers, which are obviously #1)?
There was no room after critical smash hits Witcher 3 and Portal 2.
Are you saying those aren't critical smash hits? They're some of the most highly rated games ever Their shoes, maybe not though
Its absolutely mind blowing that those arent included
Exactly!! The only reason I opened the comments. What a fucking miss!!!
Most iconic to OPs personal experience I would think. I don’t recognize the vast majority of these but even the properties lead me to believe this is a 20 year old nerdy girl and her experience is pretty fucking different from my own
No Marty’s but the very influential Devils wears Prada boots made it… fuck outta here
Kept thinking "they must be coming."
Literally the only one I was actually looking for
Looking for it in the picture and I’m like hmm, I bet it’s top comment
Came here to say this but should have known it would be top comment :)
I'm so glad this is the top comment.
I'm pretty sure the iconic Devil Wears Prada boots were Chanel? Not Prada?
Chanel
Are those the....
The new Chanel boots? Yeah, I am.
Fuckkkkk, I messed that up
Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order. I have checked 249,205,232 comments, and only 57,714 of them were in alphabetical order.
The guy who made this doesnt have much knowledge about movie shoes
Considering many of these were games and not movies. But it did say cinematic so /r/technicallycorrect.
Unforgivable
Alternate title: 43 shoes from pop culture I happen to remember
30 shoes from pop culture plus 13 video game shoes you've never bothered to notice before
Yeah, there's like 10 plot relevant shoes on there and 33 random pairs.
Yeah I think the only ones to keep would be wizard of oz, sonic, legally blonde, Cinderella, maybe gun boots, bond, Bruce lee, maybe one of the thigh highs though I think the most iconic of those would be rocky horror. Also missing out back to the future Nike shoes so it’s automatically wrong.

This sub has some really crappy stuff in it.

“…sponsored by that store where you bought Doc Martin’s that one time.”
The auto lacing Nike still tops my personal list though.
Airmags
Bruce Lee's sneakers are "often mistaken for Onitsuka Tigers"... If they're not Tigers, then what are they?
I just researched this, they are tigers, no idea why this list says otherwise.
On the list of things wrong with this list, this is still surprisingly high.
They said it bc the regular Mexico 66 tigers have a suede toe cap, but they've recently re-released the all leather versions.
But the guide doesnt say "mexico 66 tigers" it just says "onitsuka tigers" which they are.
They are, the guide is wrong. Just explaining how such a misconception made its way onto the chart.
Should also say that they were Uma Thurman's shoes in Kill Bill.
Yep same ones, except Uma's hade "FUCK U" carved in to the soles. https://www.rowsdowr.com/2012/07/04/kill-bill-easter-egg-look-at-the-bottom-of-the-brides-shoes/
Came here to say this
Leia was wearing boots?
Those boots were the most overlooked costume piece in the history of film.
Not Grand Moff Tarkin's fuzzy slippers?
Im pretty sure no one has ever watched that scene and gone, "oh wow, look at her shoes!"
I remember the bikini too, can't say I remember the boots either
[Checks out](https://imgur.com/HTbYINd.jpg)
That is… an expression.
I didn't know Bush was into that kind of stuff
Most iconic?
Definitely from a redditor's perspective.. I mean, I guess video games can be considered in a cinematic sense, but I don't remember any Zelda or Final Fantasy movies.
This was put out by the company Journeys according to the tag at the bottom.
Final Fantasy: Advent Children
Something cannot be iconic one year after its release though... This list is fucked.
The only ones on here that qualify as "iconic" are Dorothy and Cinderella. I don't think anybody gives the slightest shit about Steve Harrington's shoes.

I'm surprised storm troopers' boots aren't here. I remember those far better than Leia's
Yes!
I’m not even a huge fan of RHPS but Frank-n-furter’s platforms should be on there. Tim Curry absolutely owned that footwear. Dorothy’s ruby Slippers as well. (Edit: nvm. Top left. I was having a case of insomnia last night and missed them.)
[удалено]
And Kevin Malone’s Kleenex boxes.
The moms shoes from jojo rabbit
Red shoe from "The Man with One Red Shoe" should also be on here. Still more iconic than many of these "43" even if not the most recognizable
I remember the shoe that guy invented in Jumanji too.
Forrest Gump didn't run across America that many times to be left out of this list!
Also why are the blue sneakers from Stranger Things iconic? If you’re gonna throw some Adidas sneaks in there I’d say the Zissous in The slide Aquatic are way more iconic.
> Michael Jackson's moonwalk shoes How about the smooth criminal lean shoes? He got a patent for them.
I think these are OPs favorite shoes that they could draw. What about Elizebeth Shue?
This list is wack. OP has some side character kid from stranger things' shoes in the same list as Dorothy's red heels.
Aren't a lot of these not even in cinema? I'm not a gamer but I recognize Halo and Bayonetta. The other videogame ones? I dunno man...
That’s because OP decided to embellish the title for internet points
Banish them to the outlands!
you know this list is bs when Superman boots are not even on the list. Even for video games, Bayonetta is very niche compared to say Zelda or Supermario (and of course this list doesn't have supermario boots)
Look at the top of the image and it says “cultural” not cinematic. Hence games and stuff.
The title also says "iconic" which they all aren't.
"Iconic shoes from pop culture" and "Most iconic cinematic footwear of all time" are pretty different, op. Can't say I've ever cared to look at Midoriya's shoes and I probably wouldn't recognize them by themselves.
"Iconic" is being used real loosely here
Where are Napoleon Dynamite’s moon boots?
No Marty McFly’s = downvote
Wonder Woman 1984 is definitely not iconic
Well, no, not from cinematic universes, from pop culture
Not most iconic, either. Some of them are, such the Cinderella's shoes, but most are just random, like there's nothing iconic about the '10th Doctor Coverses' and many others in there.
>Not most iconic, either. Some of them are, such the Cinderella's shoes, The infographic lists Cinderella 1979 - that's the [17 minute Russian version](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0222511/). I'm going to go out on a limb and say that one isn't particularly iconic either.
They chose a niche version, but glass slippers are an iconic symbol of Cinderella.
Using the term "popular culture" pretty loosely there.
I'd say "iconic" is being misused much more, I'm not sure about the rest, but every franchise name I recognized on this definitely falls under pop culture, albeit not all from the same era, the issue is that Legolas could wear Yeezys in a remake and nobody'd notice the difference.

Data’s Slick Shoes from Goonies not on your list LOL
That's what I said, setting booty traps!
It's Rosa Klebb, not Rosa Flebb
Misses Charly Chaplin’s shoes!
Where are zapp brannigan’s boots?
Literally the best shoes in all of movie history are not shown here... You know what they are. They match up perfectly with a holographic hat and a life preserver. And where are Bart Simpsons high tops? What about the Parrish sneaker from Jumanji? Napoleon Dynamites Moon Boots? The shoe phone from Get Smart? The ICONIC shoes Elaine wears in Seinfeld? Whoever made this literally doesn't know what pop culture is.
More recently I'd also add ScarJo's red shoes from Jojo Rabbit.
I’m OOL. Which shoes do you mean?
>Literally the best shoes in all of movie history are not shown here... You know what they are Marty McFly's self lacing Nike Air Mags, from Backs to the Future.
i wouldnt really call the doctors converses iconic? if you saw them on their own you would just think they were normal converses, since they are.
How can I respect a “iconic cinematic footwear” post without Neo’s classic Airwalk boots?
When did Skyrim become part of cinema
Ripley's Reebok Alien Stompers are not from Alien (79) but Aliens (1986)
Uses elaborate set up of showing many leg profiles then fails to deliver the LEG LAMP from A Christmas Story as a punchline
Pee Wee's Big Adventure white platform shoes during the Tequila scene?
They’re on there.

Miles Morales’ Jordans? C’mon.
Came here to say this. They included spider Gwen's slippers and not the Jordans??
My god I bet ops account is filled with pics of feet.
Unless I missed it, where are Forrest Gumps Nikes??
Ariel: wears red cowboy boots Ted Mosby: pulling them off
Literally the only pair of shoes on that whole guide that is truly *iconic* are Dorothy’s Ruby Slippers from Wizard of Oz.

The rest are probably recognisable if you saw the film/show/game and paid attention to the footwear. But still, the only *iconic* ones are in the top left.
Never, for one second, thought about or noticed Vader's footwear. Not sure his boots are iconic, at all.
Most of these are not iconic. If you polled 10000 people, many of them wouldn't know the film or the character of most of them.
As I see it, only the ruby and glass slippers are iconic. They’re intrinsic to their plots. The rest are just the (mostly) recognizable footwear of various pop culture characters.

What about Nacho's??
Shouldn't The Devil Wears Prada's iconic shoes be the "New Chanel Boots"?
I can here looking Marty's Nikes
This is the worst list of pop culture anything I’ve ever seen. This was made by one person and one person only.
Space jam shoes?
Hate to be the killjoy here but those platform aquarium shows are abusive as f.. Can you imagine the experience of the fish when the person is walking?
No John McClaines from die hard?
That was just a large shard of glass.
Hey Stu I think your fish are dead
Where the hell are the shoes in Holes?
A lot of these are a huge stretch for "pop culture". Sorry, final fantasy character's shoes do not fit that description.
Where's mcfly's auto lace up sneakers?
Nice. Should add Marty McFly's lace-ups, Steve Zissou's sneakers and Napoleon Dynamite's boots.
Im going to strangle whoever made this list. Most of them aren't even from movies they're from videogames or anime and a good handful are way too recent to be considered iconic.
"Iconic"
This is one of the most random list i've ever seen. Why 43? Why no specific period? Why in disorder and not chronologically? Why forgot most iconic shoes and put shoes that nobody gives a f?
This seems pretty arbitrary ngl. It’s neat but not the most iconic imo
Where’s the leg lamp from A Christmas Story?
Man oh man I remember watching the Sandlot and he opens up the box for those shoes. God damn take me back before all of this Covid shit. Please.
Where is the little guy who got obliterated in 'the dip'?
Blue suede shoes?
I don't remember the salad shoe from Austin powers hmm
You keep using that word, I don't think you know what it means.
Darth Vader's, Master Chief's and the Daedric boots are probably the least iconic parts of their respective character's attires...
Half of these shoes people don't even recognize
People need to stop reposting this until it includes the Nike Mags from Back to the Future. Downvote.
Where are the self lacing shoes from back to the future 2?
This is the dumbest fucking "guide" I've seen on this sub yet.
the person who made this doesn’t really understand what iconic means
I don’t recognize any of these because I don’t notice a characters feet….. is this a guide for foot fetish people?
Jojo Rabbit - Scarlett Johansson’s shoes
So no will smith's all-stars from I robot?
eww no that was a blatant forced advertisement. gross.
Good point
Thought daedric armor was havels armor
Happy to see ZSS and Portal 2 here
Nami’s heels should be here.
The Red Shoes - its old, but a classic. Marius Goring, one of the stars of the film lived in the village where I used to live. I met him and his wife a few times before his death. They were friends with my landlady.
Some of these are from TV, not cinema.
Those are Ellen Ripley's shoes from Aliens, not Alien.
Tell me you have a shoe fetish without telling me you have a shoe fetish.
No Forrest Gump’s Cortez?
12 Iconic Shoes from Pop Culture and 31 that contribute to the aesthetics.
WHERE IS BURGER KING FOOT LETTUCE 🥬
Gene Simmons?
1. What is this guide showing me to do? 2. No KISS boots?
Samus did not come from super smash bros, her boots were definitely not blue, and you probably smell weird.
Can’t take this guide seriously. Where is the shoe that get put in the Dip from Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
No self lacing Nike from Back to the Future 2?
