There have been plenty of [bone and skeleton shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stomp-clog), but not so many anatomical ones that depict internal organs. These anatomical Keds are brilliantly strange, although I remain unsure that I would want to wear a pair.

They are only 65 euros each, but I am just not sure what type of occasion I would wear them for. A wedding or a funeral, most certainly not!

**Implications** - Anatomical footwear such as these [customized Keds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vivobiome) is just the latest in a growing niche of [anatomical apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/birchbury-bramford). These designs range from artistic to downright macabre, and allow consumers to literally wear their heart on their sleeve without having to see a surgeon.
