BAIT Casts Original Ninja Turtles Movie Actors For Upcoming Superstar Drop

To mark their exclusive early launch of the Ninja Turtles x adidas Superstar, BAIT tapped the original actors from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film franchise to further reveal this anticipated collaboration. With buzz surround the release at a high among comic book collectors and Ninja Turtle fanatics, BAIT adds an exciting cherry on top to give the sneaker release even more Turtle Power.

If you’re a fan of the live action movies, then you need to introduction to who these icons of the silver screen are. For the uninformed, Ernie Reyes Jr. is best known for his role as Keno while Francois Chau portrayed the notorious villain Shredder in the Secret Of The Ooze sequel (Super Shredder was played by none other than Kevin Nash aka Diesel of pro-wrestling fame).

BAIT also provides an exclusive detailed look at the shoes, which also feature special insoles from the animated Ninja Turtles movie. A special easter egg is revealed beneath in the form of a sewer cap at the heel. Along with the turtle green suede upper is a reshaped toe-cap mimicking the shell of the turtle, while red straps and eye-wraps appear on the upper. According to TMNT lore, the reptilian warriors all wore red eye-wraps before being graced with their own individual colors.

Ahead of the global launch on March 22nd, BAIT will hold an exclusive release the weekend prior with a special party going down on March 14th at BAIT Melrose. Follow them on Instagram for details if you’re looking to attend, and check out the gallery of images.
