Aug 1 2008Yes Please!: Limited Edition Goonies Pumas
For every kid there's a movie that so was awesome to watch in your youth that it shaped your very being. For many, this movie was Goonies. For me, it was a sick German porno I found in my uncle's closet. But that doesn't make these limited edition Goonies Disk Blaze Pumas any less awesome. Dropping around the 6th of December for an undisclosed number of doubloons, they've got everything a gang of prepubescent treasure hunters could want in a pair of sneakers.
Puma obtained exclusive rights to the artwork and constructed this LE release out of the map on our most iconic runner from the early 1980's, the Disc Blaze. It features the infamous Disc closure system, heavy weave pull tabs and exclusive Goonies film logos on heel, sockliner and midsole. The limited Puma "List" sneaker comes in a customized burlap Goonies sack. Enjoy your adventure trying to snatch these up.
Must have!
Don't you realize? The next time you see sky, it'll be over another town. The next time you take a test, it'll be in some other school. Our parents, they want the best of stuff for us. But right now, they got to do what's right for them. Because it's their time. Their time! Up there! Down here, it's our time. It's our time down here. That's all over the second we ride up Troy's bucket.
Oh man, I could sit here and copy/paste Goonies quotes forever, but I'm on a mission today. It's a top-secret operation I've cleverly named Operation Get Drunk At The Local Street Fair, Eat A Street Vended Sausage, And Buy A Bunch Of Knick Knacks I'll Regret Tomorrow.
UPDATE: I puked kielbasa all over a basket weaver. Mission Accomplished!
A bunch more of the shoes along with, because it's Friday and I love you all dearly, a video of Chunk doing the Truffle Shuffle.

The Goonies was a lousy movie and I hope everyone who wears the shoes will be beaten to death by a midget

@3 LMFAO
Just imagine the most hideous thing you could ever put on your feet - I think that's how they came up with the idea for these shoes.

Captain pointless, The goonies is obviously not meant for everyone. Mostly people who are not total douches.
Yes, its pointles, but its awesome. In fact its what makes it awesome. You know in that way ony a 80's movie could pull off. Maybe its just nostalgia kicking in.

I actually think the shoes are kinda cool...but I'm into weird tennis shoes.

OK SG, aren't you forgetting to mention something? Banana.....?
Anyway, my X loved that inane crap! She watched that movie so many times I almost became a woman beater. Of course my overwhelming integrity stopped me and I only use an open hand to spank her good.....Which led to something else and caused me to forget her lack of intelligence all together.

You're a dirty man, Scott.
And no, I didn't forget anything. You just want me to type it so you can type something piffy in response. :P

The shoes are pretty ugly but I loved Goonies (still do!)

The Goonies was awesome and I'm all for nostalgia, but these shoes don't look so good. I think those skulls make it look like some weird leopard-print.

To respond SG, I plan to get a Hummer today.......and I think you know what I'm trying to say when I say that.

the shoes are kinda ugly, but i'd still consider them just because they're GOONIES SHOES. that has just got to be my favorite movie of all time. if you haven't seen it yet, you must.
15. JaC - August 1, 2008 2:15 PM
If they were truly Goonies shoes, they'd be able to squirt oil from the heels.
16. SmokingGirl - August 1, 2008 3:11 PM
You never respond to my e-mails anymore, Scott.
And I totally know what you're talking about...*hummmmmmmm*
17. Holy Crap! - August 2, 2008 1:37 AM
Aww, that clip cut short of the little Rub Goldberg Machine. That was my favorite part of the movies.

Goonies was sublime. Especially Ma who favored one criminal son over the other and the scene where they were trying to make Chunk talk.
Or the scene where Sloth remembered Ma dropped him on his head. Or Josh Brolin stealing and riding that little girls bike........
And no, I didn't used to be married to #8.
The shoes, meh...
