K-Swiss readies Harry Potter inspired shoe collection

Quidditch-inspired footwear will launch with a Wizarding World exclusive design on July 23.

K-Swiss has partnered with Warner Bros. on a new footwear collaboration inspired by Harry Potter’s favourite sport of Quidditch.

The new line kicks off with a Wizarding World exclusive, with the Harry Potter x K-Swiss Firebolt Hypercourt Express 2 available from July 23.

Inspired by the broom it takes its name after, the shoe features black bristles, silver footholds and an authentic wood grain.

The box comes adorned with a special Enchanted Key, which, when scanned using the Wizarding World app (which is available in the UK, US, New Zealand and Australia) will serve up an extra surprise for fans. Even the tissue paper which the shoe comes in has been styled to look like a Daily Prophet newspaper.

In addition, for fans in Great Britain, 20 of the shoe boxes will contain a special gift of a Golden Snitch collectable.

The Harry Potter x K-Swiss Firebolt Hyperbolt Express 2 will be priced at £119.95.
