Eagle-eyed viewers of The Tonight Show Starring @jimmyfallon may have clocked the presenter’s chunky off-white sneakers on July 18, while others may have been too fixated watching Jane Fonda smash an egg onto her forehead.⁠ ⁠ Whichever category you fall into (maybe it’s both?), those exact sneakers have been revealed as a unique collaboration between Brooklyn-based art collective @mschf and Fallon, whom MSCHF describes as a "long-time MSCHF friend."⁠ ⁠ Officially titled the MSCHF Gobstomper Jimmy Fallon Edition (presumably a play on Gobstopper, the Wonka company's multi-layered jawbreaker), the off-white sneaker — which boasts pops of brown, blue, yellow, and red — looks good enough to lick.⁠ ⁠ That attractive facade is only the Gobstomper's surface level: multiple layers of color are hidden beneath the sneaker's crisp beige surface, revealed gradually as the shoe wears down.⁠ ⁠ At a quick glance of the accompanying campaign, it seemed as if MSCHF had caught Fallon slap bang in a mid-life crisis (skateboard in hand and, inexplicably, licking a sneaker), but after digging a little deeper, it started to make some sense, at least.⁠ ⁠ Irrespective of the campaign, the sneakers — which are set to drop in limited quantities exclusively via the MSCHF Sneakers App on July 28, (1pm EST) for $195 via a grueling 24-hour raffle — feature subtle motifs at the rear and on the outer tongue, with co-branding housed on the inner.⁠ ⁠ ✍️: @tayler_willson ⁠ 📷️: MSCHF, The Tonight Show #hskicks
