'Lectric Boots are large metal shoes with flashing lights made by Ol' Fatty's. Despite the implications of the marketing claims, during operation the boots are loud and draw enough current to blow a household circuit breaker in a few seconds.
Strong Bad eventually decided to sell them for $116 at his garage sale. Apparently, Bubs bought them, as one of them was seen in Senorial Day.
A boot with an appearance similar to that of the 'Lectric Boots was seen on Strong Bad's cardboard cutout in the email portrait.
