Few forms of sadistic torture in this world are more excruciatingly painful than having to walk across a field of LEGO bricks left on the ground by a careless child or a short-sighted adult. Fortunately, there is now a way to protect yourself from these domestic land mines: the famous building blocks, working together with French advertising agency Brand Station, has invented anti-LEGO slippers! It only took them 66 years, too!

The slippers, which feature tons of padding, will be produced in a limited run of 1,500 and will be distributed randomly to people who fill out Christmas wish-lists on LEGO toys’ French website. This is the perfect way to make those lucky parents’ Christmas dreams come true and alleviate the excruciating pains of stepping on a LEGO!
