Can you walk on water with those? Do the heal blisters?

It seems sacrilegious to put holy water on ones smelly feet and grind it into the dirt with every step.

I think they’re great.

Anyone owning these is showing exactly what kind of person they are.

No confusion. No mixed messages.

I wanted to buy a pair for heretical reasons, but not for $4000.

The MSCHF in the model name may, or may not, be a sign that his is not meant entirely seriously.
You decide.

I think “MSCHF” is the super expensive sneaker retailer. Their website is mschf.xyz.

laced with holy water

Although technically, they’re laced with a crucifix. The holy water is in the soles so you, too, can walk on water just like JAYYYYY-zus!
