   Those are awesome, maybe you could pull them off ;)

   :) shoes!

   Air Obama’s? Those are pretty cool. I would never have guessed they would have came out with those.

4. Ginger, on March 3rd, 2008, said:

   McCain shoes? I’m not sure, but they’d definitely have Dr. Scholl’s inserts. Ugh, it turns my stomach to think about McCain and feet at the same time.

   Awesome Shoes!

6. williamryall, on March 7th, 2008, said:

   They do look ok, wondering what the McCain edition would look like!

7. Ben Clapton, on March 8th, 2008, said:

   I think the Australian Opposition Leader needs to have some of these made up for him. He’s currently sitting on a 7% approval rating, as opposed to the 70% approval rating of the new PM

8. williamryall, on March 10th, 2008, said:

   So just 63% to go for this Aussie :-) Would be fun to see Obama actually wearing them

9. Flimjo, on March 13th, 2008, said:

   Those are some pretty dorky shoes.

10. Georgie, on March 13th, 2008, said:

    Woah I don’t know if thats cool or not! They certainly catch your attention, how much would those go for I wonder, lol!

11. Steve, on March 13th, 2008, said:

    Even an oldie like me can appreciate quality styling, just a shame they ruin them with Obama’s face !

12. becky, on March 18th, 2008, said:

    Personally, I don’t know of anyone who would actually wear these… not b/c they don’t support Obama, but because they wouldn’t wear walking billboard signs for anyone… (except the usual nike, etc.)

13. LiveCrunch, on March 21st, 2008, said:

    Now this is funny! I could imagine people doing shirts and mugs etc but shoes ? OMG ;) Obama really kicks but maybe on blank spot…

14. Martin, on March 29th, 2008, said:

    wow…i don?t know if i like it or not…i know that there are posters, spots, shirts and so on…but shoes??? but i must admit that this is a great marketing idea…nice ^^

    Excellent! Wanth the same :)

17. luz, on April 13th, 2008, said:

    If Obama will be using this as an election propaganda. Im sure, he will be shelling out a lot of money and maybe charge electioneering because of exceeding the quota for election material expenditure.

18. Lilly, on April 16th, 2008, said:

    I love that shoes. I have 2 :)There are so pretty :) I love them.

19. Mark Albright, on April 16th, 2008, said:

    These are really neat, did you make them yourself or did you have someone else design and/or make them?

20. John, on April 17th, 2008, said:

    Who would want to go around all day with a picture of someone else on their feet? I think they are lame :(

21. Steve, on April 24th, 2008, said:

    Hahaha, that is hilarious. What is this country coming too!

22. Grant, on April 24th, 2008, said:

    The fans of Abama should buy these shoes and don?t put them of till the election will finish!

23. Wayne, on May 7th, 2008, said:

    Sweet kicks! Given Obama’s basketball past, wouldn’t they have been better as hi-tops? Still a cool idea.

    McCain’s would definitely be either the black leather velcro walking shoes or possibly slick leather boots in military fashion.

24. cnnr, on May 15th, 2008, said:

    These are targeted to kids like my urban african-american students, who would wear them in a minute. High tops aren’t the fashion these days. None of my basketball playing students wear high tops any more. THey wear shoes that look like this.

25. a mom, on May 15th, 2008, said:

    I find these a bit degrading… Because they’re on the feet. Especially bc his face is on them…

26. cass, on May 16th, 2008, said:

    My nephew has a pair and he gets compliments everywhere he goes. His classmates took pictures and they became the basis for a political discussion in one of his classes. And yes, his teacher and some of his classmates are white - it’s not just an African-American thing! I’m happy for the artist who makes them, and he’s happy to be able to support Obama.

    Yes we can!

    Can you make Poster board car shades. With the Obama logo.

    Or window shades for the car!

32. Dom in NY, on May 16th, 2008, said:

    Need a pair. Will supply the necessary shoes. Can the artist leave his info?

33. Susan, on May 16th, 2008, said:

    I contacted the artist for a pair about two months ago. At the time, he seemed surprised at the idea of selling them. Now they run for $125.

34. Frank, on May 16th, 2008, said:

    I fully support the candidate and please forward me the contact info for the artist. I want to purchase a pair and I will offer top dollar. Thanks in advance. Please contact me at: frthomas@san.rr.com

    I would like to purchase a pair of the Barack Obama tennis shoes. Size 9 medium

37. Danielle, on May 17th, 2008, said:

    I think they are absolutely ridiculous and make Obama’s campaign look more and more like the cult it has been accused of being. It cheapens the office of the Presidency.

38. la la, on May 17th, 2008, said:

46. Xeldec, on June 7th, 2008, said:

    Chance upon this post because of the title, I didn’t think its about shoes. :)

    Are these real? Are the shoes really for sale?

47. Eva White, on June 19th, 2008, said:

    Well the shoes make a good metaphor. Why would you want to buy them Xeldec?

85. Dion, on June 9th, 2009, said:

    If I have those shoes, I think I will not use them daily or even I will just keep them. I don’t want to make Obama’s face dirty by wearing the shoes because here in Indonesia I usually walk on the streets which are mostly not clean.

88. Cutting Tools, on June 22nd, 2009, said:

    you who don’t know what earmarks are, research that too. McCain is leading a campaign to end earmarks and he has not used a dime of taxpayer money. As far as lobbyist, Obama uses them just like the rest of them, if not more.

89. Cutting Tools, on June 22nd, 2009, said:

    It’s kind of ironic how you think voting for mccain, or any other republican for that fact, is a vote for the better good, when in reality all they want to do is revoke your rights!
