These Expensive “Jesus Shoes” Which Come with Holy Water 👟
Nike Air Max 97s — a.k.a. “Jesus Shoes” include a steel crucifix, are made of 100% frankincense wool, come with 60cc of “holy water” from the River Jordan tucked under the sole, and are inscribed with Matthew 14:25, the verse where Jesus supposedly walks on water. The first batch were sold out almost instantly this week. The godly shoes were made by Brooklyn-based product design company MSCHF, which created about two dozen of the kicks as a way of trolling “collab culture,” its head of commerce Daniel Greenberg tells The Post. The shoes are currently selling for $3,000 at StockX.

That is pretty brilliant and stupid at the same time. Brilliant cos they know how to play the game, stupid cos of the design. No hole at the sole, really? Haha anyway I don't believe the water came from the Jordan River cos it sounds like they just want to make fun of the religion. I loled at the walk on water part xD
lol 😂
There's a lot of ignorance about God even among those who claim to know him. But that doesn't disprove God. That doesn't disprove the facts that Jesus lived. Performed miracles. Died on the cross. Rose from the dead. That doesn't disprove the fact that those who accept Jesus as Savior and Lord receive the Holy Spirit when we are saved. And that, as we grow in Christ, the Spirit makes us into better people.
What do you think we need to be saved from?
I see what Nike did there😄😄. They finally understood how to get these people's last penny. Will these shoes protect me from falling or save me from disasters??.. Religion is a BIG scam my thoughts

In the video they share how the shoes have nothing to do with Nike but @arminnavabi doesn't understand how they were able to sell shoes with the Nike label on them.
I would you'd get something of value... they cost $3,000 USD for one pair
😄😄😄... That's my whole college tuition fee here..Give me the money instead😄

Unbelievable!!! This is amazing but expected. People go crazy when they hear a celebrity is involved with something. Now you actually involved a so called "God" in one of the world's most admired brand and not expect a wild reaction. People would probably pay more if the shoe had Christianity's "The Lord's Prayer"written on it. I truly admire the brilliance of the Nike brand on this.
Lesson; Sell God and you'll become a Billionaire in no time.

This is crazy

It's basically maddening and the fact that the selling point is holy water and Jesus inscription doesn't synonymise it with godliness or Christianity by means, it's totally blaspheme and selling this commodity is totally crazy.
I think the use of water by Catholic Priests and calling it Holy Water is also crazy.
It's an archaic practice that's not even written in the bible, crazy lol
Yeah 😆 that's true.. it's not.
