This Raf Simons Keychain Resembles Recycled Waste

— January 22, 2019 — Fashion
This Silver Crushed Can Keychain by Raf Simons is modeled after a piece of recycled waste. The statement accessory embodies an air of rebellion that is synonymous with Simons' youthful aesthetic and is an ultra-luxe novelty item priced at $344 per piece. Made in Italy, the statement keychain boasts a silver clasp and is accented with the designer's logo detailing on the back.

Known for his 90s-inspired design aesthetic, Simons takes a mundane object -- the aluminum can -- and translates it into a statement accessory that will appeal to his die-hard fans. Available for purchase on the SSENSE web store, the keyring is part of a themed accessory range which includes a second keychain iteration resembling a flattened soda can and a third designed to look like a flat can top. Additionally, SSENSE carries Simons' can tab earrings.
