MSCHF x INRI x Air Max 97 'Jesus Shoes' Custom

The MSCHF x INRI x Nike Air Max 97 ‘Jesus Shoes’ allows the wearer to literally walk on water. A custom design conceived and engineered by Brooklyn-based creative agency MSCHF, the retro runner’s Max Air unit is injected with 60cc of holy water, sourced from the River Jordan and blessed by a priest in Brooklyn. The pristine upper, constructed from blue-tinged mesh with white leather overlays, features a gold crucifix lace jewel and MSCHF branding on the left heel tab. ‘INRI’ is printed on the opposite tab (short for Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum, which was inscribed on the cross), while the lateral forefoot is marked with an allusion to Matthew 14:25, the biblical chapter and verse that references Jesus’ feat of walking on water.
