SpongeBob SquarePants, the beloved animated character created by marine science educator Stephen Hillenburg, has been captivating audiences of all ages since its debut in 1999. Set in the whimsical underwater city of Bikini Bottom, the show follows the quirky adventures of SpongeBob and his friends, offering both humor and life lessons. With its distinct animation style, infectious optimism, and timeless appeal, it has become one of the most iconic cartoons of all time. Today, SpongeBob’s influence extends beyond television screens into fashion and lifestyle, and 361° is proud to bring this vibrant world to life through a unique collaboration. The partnership features an exciting array of products, including both basketball and running shoe collections inspired by the cartoon’s bright, playful colorways. These special edition shoes combine cutting-edge design with nostalgic charm, offering fans and athletes alike a chance to step into the world of SpongeBob in a fresh new way.
SpongeBob SquarePants in 361° Basketball Shoe Series
The BIG3 Future series, our all-time best basketball shoe series, is now available in SpongeBob SquarePants-inspired colorways. The four designs are named after the show’s main characters: SpongeBob, Patrick Star, Squidward, and Mr. Krabs. The "SpongeBob" edition stands out with its vibrant yellow hue and a playful SpongeBob accessory attached to the laces. For a fun mismatch, pair it with the "Patrick Star" in coral pink, featuring a cheerful Patrick accessory. The "Squidward" (green) and "Mr. Krabs" (blue) colorways offer a more subtle look, perfect for those seeking a balanced style. All four designs integrate our top sneaker technologies, including the double-layer misdole (Qu!kCQTECH and Qu!kFLAMECQT), SOAR PLATE propulsion system, a lightweight, breathable C!LK carbon-fiber upper, and a durable slip-resistance rubber outsole for superior performance.
