Key Facts of this Release
​​
-
The release features a similar color but mismatched materials with various elements belonging to the outfits worn by Cheech and Chong in their film "Cheech & Chong's Next Movie."
-
the mudguards are designed with Cheech's blue dot shirt and Tommy's bandana with the exact same pattern as the ones they wore in the original film in 1980.
-
the heels are made of faux sheepskin and corduroy to showcase Tommy Chong's sheepskin vest and Cheech Marin's beanie in the movie, with Cheech & Chong embroideries in the center.
-
the real horsehair is used to reflect Cheech's second character Cousin Red's grey animal skin coat and red wild-looking hair. Cousin Red’s turquoise jewelry is evoked by the inclusion of a brooch.
-
A washed denim material is implemented all across the right shoe to pay tribute to Tommy's classic denim outfit in the movie.
-
the velvet shoe lining demonstrates the symbolic fluffy car dashboard and the red curtains from the van in the movie.
-
The insoles are printed with Cheech & Chong's famous lowrider van decal, where the duo gained more respect by changing their original Copycat productions into a true warrior-angel in the movie. A kind message to friends and brethren alike is printed across both insoles.
-
A pair of "Ain't that a peach" napkin cloth inserts, which are inspired by one of the funny magic scenes performed by the duo, is included in the shoes.
