Perhaps even more anticipated than the London Olympics, Discovery Channel's ultra-popular Shark Week is underway with celebrating its 25 year anniversary.

During this time every year, all work comes to a halt as people all over the world tune into Shark Week to get their fix of the shark craze. Since the introduction of the legendary Jaws in 1975, sharks have been integrated into mainstream society in many forms, including footwear. Over the years, sharks have been the inspiration behind some of the sweetest sneakers ever made, including the Nike Zoom Kobe VII "Shark" basketball kicks and the Reebok ZigTech Shark runners. Whether it's due to their perceived ferocity, or just sheer physical abilities, sharks have undeniably become a topic of interest amongst the human population.

Sneaker Report joins in on the shark festivities with the following list of the best shark-inspired sneakers.
