The Versace Chain Reaction 'J-Lo Jungle' Sneakers are the latest footwear model from the brand that will provide discerning fashion-forward consumers with a way to wear a bit of fashion history.
The sneakers are inspired by the iconic green Versace dress worn by Jennifer Lopez to the Grammy's in 2000 and are covered with a similar print that is embedded onto the entire upper section of the shoe. This is contrasted by a thick white outsole, while multicolor laces further accentuate the extravagant nature of the footwear.
The Versace Chain Reaction 'J-Lo Jungle' Sneakers are limited to just 1,500 pairs for men and women, and will be available for purchase starting on May 27 for a retail price that's to be determined but likely around $995.
