Alien Stomper Reebok

This year marks the 40th anniversary of the release of director Ridley Scott's sci-fi horror classic ALIEN, and even though the film wasn't in theatres yet in April of 1979 most of the celebrating will be done this Friday, 4/26 – since the alien was discovered on the moon LV-426.

Even footwear and apparel company Reebok is getting in on the ALIEN celebrations, announcing that they will be releasing a shoe called the Alien Stomper 40th Anniversary OG.

These scarlet and snowy grey shoes were 

inspired by sketches and memoirs from Ridley Scott and artist Ron Cobb. This Alien Stomper pays homage to the prototypes and original concepts from the classic film. The logos and designs featured on this new shoe reflect logo concepts never used in the original release of Alien, all created by the movie's design team leading up to its 1979 debut. Premium aged leather and a vintage effect allude to a prototype that's been discovered 40 years later, and the vintage box and certificate provide authenticity.

If you want to slip on a pair of these shoes and imagine you're walking around in the ALIEN universe, it will set you back $125.

The shoes will be available for purchase on Reebok.com as soon as the clock strikes midnight EDT on Friday, April 26th.
