Trying to explain this shoe to someone without having them in front of you is really quite a tricky task. Even looking at these relatively decent images doesn't really properly portray everything that going on with these.
Underneath the shiny exterior is a pretty standard leather sneaker with vulcanized rubber sole. Not content with that, Marni decided to paint the entire thing with Polyurethane rubber, & by paint we mean someone's sat there & given them a good old go with a brush.
As well as that, they've gone & added all of the colour details & heel branding you'd expect by hand in a delightfully childish manner. What you end up with is something that looks like a ceramic sculpture cast from a sneaker that is hand painted & glazed. Truly incredible & oh-so-Marni.
- Calfskin leather upper hand painted with polyurethane rubber
- Canvas lining
- Rubber outsole
- Waxed cotton laces
- Spare laces made from jute twine
- Branded box & individual dust bags
