FOOTWEAR FOR GAMERS. Diesel and Street Fighter have come together to create a limited edition sneaker collection
Italian apparel company Diesel has announced that it will be creating a special capsule collection to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the legendary video game franchise “Street Fighter.” The limited-edition collection will consist of five high-cut sneakers with a color scheme that draws inspiration from five key characters of the game series.
The original “Street Fighter” was created by Capcom back in 1987 when pixels were all the rage. Through the years, the game has undergone various sequels, prequels, crossovers, animated movies and Hollywood even tried to cash in on the game’s popularity. Only last year did Capcom release “Street Fighter V,” the latest edition of the franchise that brought back many old character favorites and introduced some new challengers to the roster.
