Following up a vibrant flame-covered design, Gucci has released multiple snake sneakers for consumers looking to add more flare to their wardrobes. Like other products from the celebrated luxury fashion brand, each version boasts an unparalleled look of quality.
This comes from the shiny finish on the leather uppers, as well as clean stitching and stark color divides that make each pair stand out. A part of Gucci's Fall/Winter 2016 collection, the snake sneakers are available in a green, white, black and red colorways with laces, in addition to a sleek red and black slip-on version that lacks laces.
The former shows the Gucci branding more obviously, with its iconic red and black stripes appearing on the side of the uppers in contrast to the rest of the deep green. The slip-on version shows it as well, however more minimally with an accent ribbon on the back of the heel.
