We’ve covered geeky shoes a couple of times on the ‘squatch before, and for all you geeks who proudly wear your hearts on your feet, here’s another pair to add to your collection.

Nickelodeon and Fila have joined forces to produce a couple limited edition pairs of sneakers inspired by everyone’s favorite mutant Turtles and their arch-nemesis The Shredder. Available this holiday season, the TMNT FX-100 is a black sneaker with green laces, an embroidered shell on the back, and wrapped in an interchangeable canvas strap featuring the colors of the Turtles’ masks.

Also, there’s a black, gray, and purple shoe modeled after the colors of The Shredder, and unfortunately not featuring any blades or sharp edges. Of the two designs, this is the most appealing to me, especially because they would be the perfect shoe to wear with my Shredder hoodie.

These may not be the best-looking shoes around, but at least Nickelodeon is serious about making the TMNT popular again, and that’s just fine by me. Bring on the merchandise!

So, would you ever wear TMNT shoes?

Whenever real life intrudes on my blogging time like it did last week (yay for funerals!), I always come back home to an email inbox full of starred items from my RSS feeds, favorite tweets, and URLs to check out. Last week I found all kinds of awesome stuff online, but these new Marvel Reebok shoes may take the cake.

Marvel is collaborating with Reebok on a whole line of shoes inspired by their comic characters. Sneakers inspired by Wolverine, Sabertooth, Spider-man, Deadpool, Black Widow, and my favorite, Captain America, are going to be coming out sometime soon and will no doubt be very expensive.

Most of them are ugly as sin, but being a sucker for Reebok classics and primary colors, I think I’m going to seriously keep an eye out for the Captain America shoes.

You can check out SlashFilm for more photos, and hopefully we’ll find out more details like release date and pricing sometime soon.

Thanks to Payless shoes, you can now get a double dose of nostalgia on your feet with these new Airwalk Star Trek sneakers. Remember Airwalks? They were huge when I was in elementary school, and I’ll admit, I had a few pairs.

I never had any this geeky though. Available in three colors (including expendable red), the high-tops sport the Star Trek insignia on the laces. They’re available for a limited time, and they’re $50, so which color will you be buying?
