The announcement for the iconic partnership says Fluevog “has always felt a strong kinship with those who share his utopian vision of a world free from the conflicts and prejudices of the past,” inspiring him to launch the Starfleet boot.
“Little did he know that these shared values would lead him neatly into a partnership with one of the world’s greatest science fiction franchises,” says the statement.
The shoe really does look like it was made for a sci-fi world, with sleek silver accents and mostly neutral tones.

“Extensions of John’s futuristic Manifold Family, the boots feature soft leather and elastic uppers with a leather harness and a gunmetal finished Star Trek delta insignia at the ankle,” says the statement.
