You can now lit­er­al­ly step into Bill Murray’s shoes.

For­get Mar­ty McFly’s self-lac­ing Nikes, the movie shoes we’ve always secret­ly dreamed of one day own­ing are Bill Murray’s cus­tom Rom Zis­sou sneak­ers from Wes Anderson’s 2004 film The Life Aquat­ic with Steve Zis­sou.

Well, that long-held fan­ta­sy looks set to become real­i­ty cour­tesy of adi­das, who have recre­at­ed the pre­vi­ous­ly-fic­tion­al, retro-styled shoe as it appears in the icon­ic film.

As report­ed by sneak­ernews, a super lim­it­ed run of 100 pairs of Rom Zis­sous was made avail­able to atten­dees at We Love Green Fes­ti­val in Paris last week­end, which also fea­tured a live appear­ance from Seu Jorge, whose music fea­tures promi­nent­ly on The Life Aquat­ic soundtrack.

There’s no word yet on whether adi­das have plans to give the shoes a wider release, but we’ll be first in line should that day come. In the mean­time check them out below…
