Ever since the deadly Covid-19 virus started to spread across the globe, our daily lives have drastically changed. The vast majority of the population transitioned from being at their respective workplace to now working from home, though we have to admit that a WFH environment has its perks: no rush hour traffic, easy access to our favourite snacks, and the comfort of wearing your everyday slippers. With that said, there's no better feeling in the world than munching on food while watching a game of sports on TV. Joining us on our cushty sofa is legendary Colonel Harland Sanders and his world-famous fast-food joint, not only with a bucket of crispy fried chicken that is finger lickin' good but also a pair of KFC-inspired sneaker slippers dubbed the "Couchside Kicks".
Heavily inspired by Michael Jordan's Nike Air Jordan 4 "Fire Red" colorway, official images of the KFC slippers show a fuzzy fleece upper that provides ultimate warmth and comfort. The interiors are crafted with a neat combo of premium cotton and lush stuffing for a super lightweight feel.
Beneath the feet, a foam-padded midsole delivers all-day cushioning lined with a beaded outsole that offers additional grip and traction, meaning that you won't slip when you're scrambling back to your spot on the couch after a much-needed toilet break. Of course, the pair wouldn't be complete without its signature details throughout, notably speaking of the red and white striped chunky tongue that resembles KFC packaging complemented with Colonel Sander's instantly-recognisable caricature, and most importantly, his custom signature embroidered on the lateral side.
Let us know if you're copping the KFC "Couchside Kicks" and in related news, we're lovin' the adidas Pro Model 2G “Mcdonald’s All-American Game”. Don't forget to keep it locked in right here at The Sole Supplier for all the latest footwear news and updates!
