Marni's FW19 Sneaker is Made to Resemble Bananas
Daniel Johnson — August 30, 2019 — Fashion
The new Marni FW19 sneaker features a design that takes inspiration from bananas. The Italian shoe company created the FW19 sneaker in two different models, which include either a slip-on or laced sneaker. Additionally, the shoe is available in different colors and both models feature a rounded dark rubber exterior. The Banana-themed shoe is currently available form the Marni website and at certain retail locations, for a $650 price point.
The shoes also feature a yellow, banana peel-like stripe that runs across the outside of the shoe. The yellow stripe provides a sharp contrast to the dark black rubber sole of the shoe. A white outline runs across the top of the shoe that is nearest to the wearer's ankle.
