Every year Nike and the rest of the streetwear fashion industry tries to release limited edition shoes that people will swoon for. Once in a while, they’ll be able to make a hit, like when Nike paired up with toy culture artist Michael Lau and created the Michael Lau Nike Dunk Low Pro SB (photo above). More often than not though, the crazy sneaker designs are just nasty and ugly.
A reminder to everyone in the streetwear fashion industry – No more polka dots, fur or leopard prints please!
Here are the Top 10 Ugliest Sneakers of 2006 in no particular order.
BAPESTA Polka Dots Multi Color Bathing Ape
Crazy Air Max 95
Nike Air FootScape Woven Polka Dot
Nike X-Girl
Nike SB Dunks Three Bears Pack
Lacoste Colette Sneakers
Nike and Cole Hann Crocodile Skin ‘Icy’ Jordan’s
Microsoft Xbox Sneakers
Nike Frankenstein Pack
Nike Air Max 95 Burberry Edition
oh man. hideous!

notice how a lot of them are nike brand?
The pink and leopard crazy air max 95’s have to be the ugliest of the bunch!
Nike must either be really stupid, or they have too much time and money on their hands
what were they thinking?? but the lacostes dont look that bad from that angle
@beni
They weren’t thinking, plain and simple.
The three bears pack is kinda cute. :p
the burberry one could be the worst air max ever
The X-Box ones aren’t all that bad. As long as you don’t see the bottom.
Out of those shoes, I would probably choose the Lacoste, shoes are shiny.

I’m dying to pet the Nike SB Dunks. Purrrrrrrrrr.
you know, the more i look at the 3 bears and the frankinstein and the BAPE, even the crocs the more i start to like it, i guess these shoes are something that grows on you. Maybe thats what the companies were trying to play on, the odity, kind of clever actually
Oh man, Nike needs some refurbishment or upgrades! Instead of Victory for the check sign, place it upside down for Stupidity. Though, I think that Michael Lau Nike Dunk Low Pro SB (photo above) will be interesting to see if it hits the markets.

Yeah, the crocs and the xbox ones aren’t that bad looking. Definitely not something I’d buy, but I wouldn’t consider them to be the ugliest sneakers of 2006.

I think the Medicom Three Bears Pack is pretty sick, obviously it’s for those crazy shoe collector sneaker freakers. The XBox shoe looks like some $19.99 on sale at Payless sneaks.
You forgot about the Vibram FiveFingers (www.fivefingers.com). They’re certainly funky, if not downright ugly, but I still want a pair!!
