Airwalk Skull Sandals

Heavy Metal Fashion has evolved over the years. The standard issued uniform of the Metal Military has always been a plain black t-shirt, size XL, with a bands logo/album cover on it, jeans (blue or black), and boots/sneakers. As time progressed, the uniform has been joined by a number of other articles of clothing, like longsleeve black shirts, baseball shirts, workshirts, military fatigues, military jackets, military camouflage cargo shorts, dragonfly dress shirts (if you choose the correct one), hoodies and so forth. The reason for the additional types of clothing, many. For starters, Metal fans are from all over the world. From the Scandinavians who have to deal with cold weather all the time, to the jungles of South America where the heat can kill just by a degree or 2, to the fans from Major cities like New York City where a hoodie can come in handy running away from cops.

Than there's the whole concept of visiting another place where a change of seasonal clothing comes into the picture.


Thanks to festivals like Wacken Open Air, where you can jump into a pool to cool yourself off, or Metalheads Mission Festival, where it is the only Metal Festival that takes place in front of an ocean, or 70,000 Tons of Metal, Heavy Metals Navy, where you are in the middle of the ocean drinking and headbanging yourself to death, and stage diving off the rails and right into a sharks mouth, the Metalheads dress code has once again needed a change to adapt to the conditions of a beach landing, and that's where these sandals come into to the picture.


I managed to find these at Payless and at the clearance price of $6(66) dollars brand new. The sandals are sporting skulls which give it a place in the aforementioned Metal tropical paradises, and the best part is they are as comfortable as you can get.


Airwalk spared no empty space with these sandals as the bottoms have a skull looking right back at you, in case you happen to hit the Jager Bombs and American Cocktails a bit too hard and let the world know you need to sleep after stumbling on one of the bar stools.
