# Deity Tiled Kicks These ‘Bol$hie’ Boots Take a Different Spin on Religious Fashion By Ashley Noelle Lesiak | Published 2013-12-19 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/religious-shoe-fashion References: [bolshie.bigcartel](http://bolshie.bigcartel.com/product/bol-hie-virgin-mary-boots) Religion is kind of a touchy subject, and religious fashion walks all over that. These shoes do blasphemy fantastically. Don’t think of it like you’re stepping on a worshipped deity, think of it as though the deity is walking with you.

These shoes are perfect for the [Christian](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christian-louboutin-x-marvel) gangster or religious iconography collecting eclectics. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 52% | Activity: 47% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Religious Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunities could include incorporating religious iconography into mainstream fashion to appeal to a wider audience. - **Graphic Print Shoes:** Exploring unique and bold graphic prints on shoes can create a distinctive and eye-catching fashion trend. - **Christian Streetwear:** There is potential for creating a new genre of streetwear that merges elements of Christianity with urban fashion. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** The fashion industry can explore new designs and styles inspired by religious iconography. - **Footwear:** Footwear companies can experiment with graphic prints and bold designs on shoes to cater to the fashion-forward consumer. - **Streetwear:** The streetwear industry can tap into the market of Christian streetwear by merging religious symbols and urban fashion aesthetics. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Blockish Tread-Covered Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mschf-24-boot.md) - [Kidult Baby Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/super-baby.md) - [Dynamic Enlarged Sole Loafers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/24-loafer.md) - [Platform Statement Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/8inch-flipflops.md) - [Eye-Adorned Furry Mules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eyeball-mules.md) - [Bird Feather-Inspired Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kiss-boots.md) - [Pool Slide Heeled Sandals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flipped-flop.md) - [Romanticized Shoe Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mademe-x-dr-martens-1461-quad-shoe.md) - [Collaborative Dramatic Soled Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2x4-boot.md)
