A Fist Pump and a Flag: Trump Sneakers for Sale

His ear is still bandaged, the attempt on his life is still fresh in the nation’s mind, and the ardent supporter who was killed by a bullet meant for Donald J. Trump has yet to be laid to rest.

But it is not too soon for a company linked to the former president to try to make money off his brush with death.

High-top sneakers emblazoned with an image of Mr. Trump moments after he was shot, his face blood-streaked and his fist in the air, are now for sale for $299 on a website operated by 45Footwear. The company also produced the Trump-branded shoes that the former president hawked after a judge in New York ordered him to pay as much as $450 million in penalties and interest in a civil fraud case.

That company, about which little information is publicly available, uses the Trump name under a licensing agreement with CIC Ventures. Mr. Trump’s latest financial disclosure form, which he had to file as a candidate, lists him as the president, manager, secretary and treasurer of CIC Ventures.

“These limited edition high-tops, featuring Trump’s iconic image with his fist raised, honor his unwavering determination and bravery,” the product website states.

The sneakers went on sale as early as Monday, two days after the attempt on Mr. Trump’s life at a campaign rally in Butler, Pa., according to archived pages of the website. A 50-year-old man, a father of two, was killed by the shooter, who was armed with a semiautomatic rifle. Mr. Trump’s left ear was clipped by a bullet and two other men were injured.
