Perhaps one of the unlikeliest muses ever, Will Ferrell has inspired yet another product launch—a pair of Nike Dunks inspired by Ron Burgundy, his character in Anchorman. Available at Japanese store LTD Online, the sneakers are made from (what else?) burgundy suede, with necktie-esque striped accents and a golden swoosh. The launch follows on from Ferrell's successful charity sunscreen launch, proving the curly-haired comic has more pull with the style set than originally thought. We're still holding out for a "Derelicte" diffusion line. [Men.Style.com]
