Custom Navy SEAL boots
The backstory:
A spokesperson tells FOX 26 that there are 10 custom-made boots with designs based on the Navy SEALs. They were created by Dallas-based designer Johnnyskicks.
There are three different versions: a Land design, a Sea design, and an Air design. A pair of the Land boots and a pair of the Sea boots were stolen from the vehicle.
All pairs will be given to people who finished a scavenger hunt on Friday, followed by some physical and mental challenges on Saturday.
