For those unfamiliar, NZXT is a company that makes PC components such as the case to house said components. They also make cooling systems like the ones you see on the shoe. Unfortunately, based on what we can see, it’s hard to tell if this is an actual device in action or if it is merely a CG rendering.

After all, we have seen some pretty convincing renders in the past, so it wouldn’t be a stretch to think that this could be another one. The folks at RTKFT later followed up with another tweet that reads, “We’re super excited to announce a partnership with @NZXT, empowering RTFKT and our creators community to create the future of fashion and collectibles , powering our vision, community and crazy ideas with their awesome builds and love of gaming.”
In any case, it seems rather impractical as a pair of shoes, but if this were some kind of super mini PC build, then color us very impressed!
