Want to know more about the history of these bad boys? Read below, and it's as weird as the show itself.
This shoe was inspired by the show’s Black Lodge. The body of the shoe simulates the entrance to the Lodge, located in Ghostwood Forest. There lies a black pool surrounded by 12 Sycamore trees in Glastonbury Grove, which is illustrated by the black wood grain leather and green stitching. It is in the Black Lodge where you will meet your own shadow self and confronting it with imperfect courage will annihilate your soul. The blue owl on the outside flap also signifies the entrance to the Black Lodge, where owls are often found and are not what they seem. The interior is lined in red with a unique insole symbolizing what is believed to be the Black Lodge or Red Room’s (waiting room) most recognizable characteristic: red curtains and geometric flooring. The sole of the shoe symbolizes the beginning of Twin Peaks: who killed Laura Palmer? She is Twin Peak’s homecoming queen and daddy’s girl turned coke addict and prostitute who washes ashore wrapped in plastic.
Creator/Director David Lynch said the Black Lodge was “a pure matter of inspiration... The difference between reality and fantasy has never been clear to me. I’ll probably be very surprised, when I find out, what it really is, some day.”
Thanks to FTC for the history lesson. We think.
