To kick off the launch of its latest product, the Future Burger 4.0, plant-based food company Future Farm teamed up with celebrity sneaker expert MattB Customs to create vegan cheeseburger sneakers. Officially called the Force of Nature sneakers, this design mimic the many layers that make up a cheeseburger with plant-based paint and a carbon-neutral base.
In support of the Rainforest Alliance, the company is dropping a limited number of the Force of Nature sneakers on eBay.
The fusion of fast food and sneakers combines two seemingly unrelated worlds, creating a niche market that has captured the imagination of many. While there have been several burger-themed footwear designs released, this vegan iteration stands out.
