History Main / TrickedOutShoes

* ComicBook/IronMan has also had skates added to his armor.
** Oh, and jet boosters, too.
** And high-powered magnets that allowed him to walk on walls. Pretty rarely used, of course.

* ''WesternAnimation/InspectorGadget'': Though, in his case, the gadgets actually do pop out from the bottoms of his feet.

* Parodied in ''Webcomic/XKCD'', where Cueball receives a pair of enchanted shoes that allow you to outrun death itself, but which he declines because they're those weird kind of shoes with individual toes.

StickyShoes is a subtrope for footware designed to hold the wearer on a surface against gravity. Compare JetPack (which covers Rocket Boots), TrickedOutGloves, ArmedLegs, ShoeSlap. See also MagicalAccessory.

Can overlap with NiceShoes (if the shoes are pimped out enough), ShoePhone (if the item is actually a shoe).

* In the ''Film/StreetFighter'' film, [[BigBad Bison]] wears boots that allow him to levitate. How this actually works is never fully explained other than Bison boasting it involves electromagnetism, but this is the least of the movie's problems.

* ''Franchise/DocSavage'' was a man CrazyPrepared enough to carry equipment ''everywhere'' in his body, including components for a small bomb on the heels of both of his boots (interestingly, it used a binary explosive: both boots carried chemicals that became explosive when combined).

* A variation in ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureJojolion''. Hato Higashikata's [[FightingSpirit Stand]], Walking Heart, has the ability to prolong any appendage or extremity and cause them to be spiked. Hato mainly uses this ability on her shoes, causing the heels to be spiked to not only impale her enemies, but also let her [[WallRun walk up walls]].

* Soap Shoes for [[GrindBoots Rail Grinding]]. Featured in ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2''.

** The Demoman has Ali Baba's Wee Booties and the Bootlegger, both of which which adds 25 HP to his max health, 10% to his max movement speed, and triple turning control when {{Shield Bash}}ing.

* For an episode, ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible'' had to wear shoes that gave her super speed to keep up with the gynoid robots, the Bebes, who had returned with their own super speed capabilities. Fortunately, the pair was he exact size, so she was the only one who could wear them (oddly enough there was another pair that was Rufus' size because they were testing them on lab rats). Unfortunately, the device was also unstable, which often left her overshooting her target and [[TimeStandsStill stuck in hyperspeed]].

* A later season of ''WesternAnimation/BigHeroSixTheSeries'' gives Honey Lemon Chem Shoes to go with her Chem Purse. Like her purse, she can fire specific chemical compounds out of the sole, which she usually uses to launch herself on an instant pillar or land safely in a cushion of gel.

* One of the original gadgets in the ''TabletopGame/JamesBond007'' was the shoe escape kit.

* OlderThanFeudalism: The [[Myth/GreekMythology Greek]] god Hermes is depicted in artwork wearing [[MercuryWings winged sandals]], which actually let him fly.

* Partway through ''Series/KamenRiderDrive'', [[HypercompetentSidekick Kiriko]] receives special boots based off of the Drive suit which can be powered, enhancing her running, jumping, and kicks (much like ''Manga/DetectiveConan'', above).

* Conan of ''Manga/DetectiveConan'' has shoes that deliver an electric current through his legs. This greatly enhances his kicking ability.

* ''Anime/MegamanNTWarrior'': Lan could attach wheels to his shoes to make them RollerbladeGood.

* ''Videogame/MegaManX'': Part of Dr. Light's PoweredArmor enhancements are Tricked Out Leg Armors. X1's leg armor enables him to dash (a feature X has from the start in later games), X2's lets him do dash in the air, X3's enables 3-way air dash (including upwards), and with the Leg Chip he can either air dash twice or air dash after a dash jump, X4's (both Fourth and Ultimate Armor) gives him air dash and hovering. X5's Falcon Leg lets him ''fly'' (for generous seconds and makes him all but invulnerable during flight) and Gaea Leg makes him immune to spikes, not sliding during wall clinging and able to push certain blocks, X6's Blade Leg enables 4-way very fast air dash that makes him go through enemies and Shadow Leg makes him immune to spikes, not sliding down during wall clinging and a high jump that makes him do CeilingCling, X7's lets him glide in the air, X8's Icarus Leg gives him a higher jump, Hermes Leg gives him faster running speed and ability to dash through enemies, and Ultimate Leg combines the two.
* ''Videogame/MegaManZero:'' the third and fourth game enables enhancements to your armor parts, including your shoes. It ranges from increasing running speed, {{double jump}}ing, jumping on water surfaces, giving friction to FrictionlessIce, protection against blowing winds, dashing through enemies, sliding down walls slower, and, in case of the secret Ultima Chip, ''almost all of the above''.
* ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}'': the 'Long Fall Boots' Chell wears to prevent [[NotTheFallThatKillsYou fall damage]].
