These vegan sneakers were designed with a secret compartment under the tongue of the shoes that can be used to hide marijuana.
The Freetown Christiania communty in Denmark is known for its love of "homegrown herbs" and the 'hummel x CSC' shoes are a direct reference to that fact. Designed in a collaboration between 'hummel' and 'Christiania Sports Club,' these vegan sneakers are made from canvas, rubber and hemp. The colors of the shoes represent Christiania's, "autonomous community colors" -- with a vibrant red coupled with yellow accents making up their design. The shoes are designed with three yellow dots that symbolize the autonomous community's flag.
These marijuana-hiding shoes are only available in the town they were designed to represent, making them both distinct and exclusive.
