Mork and Mindy Dunks by SummerSeventySix
Quite possibly the strangest idea yet as part of Nike's SB (skateboarding) range are these Mork And Mindy Hi-Top Dunks. For those unfamiliar with the character played by Robin Williams in the late-1970s/early-1980s, Mork was an alien from the planet Ork, who arrived on Earth in an egg. His catchphrase was "Greetings Earthlings" and Mindy was his girlfriend (kind of). If you never saw it, it was pretty weird, a bit like these shoes. Looking like something straight out of Studio 54, the rainbow soles are inspired by Mork's braces/suspenders. They're expected to be available in the Autumn.
