A company has recently launched a new line of sneakers featuring an image of former President Donald Trump in a striking pose. Priced at $299, the white high-top sneakers depict Trump with streaks of blood on his cheek and pumping his fist in the air, symbolizing his reaction to an assassination attempt in Pennsylvania.
The sneakers, named 'FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT High-Tops,' are being sold on a website managed by CIC Ventures LLC, a company listed in Trump's 2023 financial disclosure. The limited edition shoes, with only 5,000 pairs available, are expected to ship in September or October, with 10 pairs randomly autographed.
According to the company, the sneakers aim to honor Trump's determination and bravery, capturing a defining moment in history. CIC Ventures had previously released 'Never Surrender High-Tops,' gold sneakers featuring an American flag detail on the back, priced at $399.
The launch of these sneakers reflects the efforts of Trump's supporters to capitalize on his response to the recent shooting incident at a rally in Pennsylvania. Trump's defiant gesture of raising his fist and mouthing 'fight, fight' has been highlighted as a symbol of his resilience.
Following the incident, Trump received a warm reception at the Republican National Convention, where he appeared emotional with a bandage over his right ear. The event featured a performance by musician Lee Greenwood singing 'God Bless the USA.'
Supporters of Trump are optimistic that these moments will bolster his bid for a return to the White House, challenging Democratic President Joe Biden's reelection campaign. Meanwhile, concerns within the Democratic Party regarding Biden's performance in recent debates have led to calls for considering alternative candidates.
Despite the political undertones, CIC Ventures maintains that its website is not affiliated with any political campaign. However, online posts by Trump campaign officials have promoted the sale of these exclusive sneakers.
