PlayStation vs Xbox Console War Moves to Nike/Adidas Branded Shoes

PlayStation vs Xbox shoes

The PlayStation vs Xbox console war is about to move from gaming to something very different - shoes. Both gaming brands from Sony and Microsoft have partnered with the leading sportswear and apparel brands of Nike and Adidas to produce PlayStation and Xbox themed shoes.

The PlayStation/Nike shoe was unveiled last Tuesday and it features a special collaboration with Los Angeles Clippers NBA Star Paul George. According to him, the project was co-designed with Yujin Morisawa, the artist behind the PlayStation 5 console. These are the design's highlights:

  • As with all my PlayStation collaborations, the tongues of the shoe have the PG and PlayStation logos on them.
  • The colors of the shoe are heavily inspired by the industrial design of the PS5 with references on the sock liner and outsoles.
  • It wouldn’t be a true collaboration with PlayStation if we didn’t include the iconic PlayStation shapes, which are spotted along each shoe in the same pattern as on the DualSense wireless controller.
  • Each pair also comes with a special hangtag celebrating my continued partnership with my favorite gaming brand.

The PG 5 PlayStation 5 colorway will be available starting May 14th in select regions.

As for Xbox, the collaboration with Adidas isn't official yet, but Complex managed to get the lowdown and a leaked image of the actual shoes). The partnership is actually for a series of sneakers, starting with the Xbox x Adidas Forum Tech Boost (pictured above) that's due in June and continuing with two more Xbox x Adidas sneakers due to debut in October and November. Complex does add that this is merely a 'first-round sample' and the final product could look different.
