Lil Nas X Satan Shoe Creator Daniel Greenberg, Explains Whose Blood Was Used

Lil Nas X has been trending since dropping a controversial music video and teaming up with MSCHF to launch satanic shoes which sold out less than a minute today.

It was revealed that the midsole is filled with some red ink and even a drop of blood. With one drop of blood being added to all 666 pairs.

The blood part is quite strange and their have been questions on where the blood was drawn from. However, in an interview with Complex, the shoe’s creator, Daniel Greenberg, explained where the blood came from.

“Myself and some of my co-workers,” he said simply. Essentially, the blood does not come from Lil Nas X, but rather from a collection of random designers who chose to partake in the process. As for how the blood was taken, well, that wasn’t so easy.

“Not the best way, to say the least,” Greenberg said. “I could tell you; it’s just kind of graphic. But, like, not by any means a good way of doing it.” No matter how you feel about the process, it turned out to be successful as the shoe sold out in just 5 minutes.

MSCHF is also known for the Drake Holy Water shoes, and this latest model was on the complete other end of the spectrum. Unfortunately, Nike is suing MSCHF for trademark infringement.
