The boot Tina Sanchez used as inspiration for the pattern on Wraith’s back.
For those of you who don't know, Tina Sanchez is a producer at Respawn Entertainment, and also the character designer who designed Wraith. And I just so happened to be lucky enough to meet her in person during an LGBT roundtable conference at GDC last week, and she showed me her boot, which she claimed she used as inspiration for the pattern on Wraith's back.
Here's some photos:
