Guy In Gold Boots

Yesterday The CW released this publicity photo from the upcoming season of The Flash, showing Barry Allen in his new suit— complete with comic-accurate gold boots! Huzzah!

Wow, that only took a whopping EIGHT YEARS. Was that really so hard to do, The CW?

Ordinarily I'm a stickler for accuracy and fidelity to the source material. But I gotta admit, after seven seasons of seeing him dressed all in red, the gold boots look might... odd. Weird, even. Hopefully it won't take very long to get used to them.
