Worried you’re not getting enough of your daily dose of fruits and veggies? Well I don’t know the nutritional value of these, but instead of eating bananas you can wear bananas without going bananas.
Sergio Zambon's design called 'Il Tacco a banana.' which means "heel to banana" in Italian, is a ripe new twist on the classic high heel. Manufactured by Ernesto Esposito and inspired by ironic Austrian artist Erwin Wurm, these banana heels are a fruity and witty accent.
Just be sure to avoid monkeys while wearing these banana heels.
