In honor of the latest live-action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film, sportswear brand [FILA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/needles-x-fila-fw26) designed this super stylish Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle sneakers that pay tribute to the iconic costumes of the crime-fighting reptiles.

These M-Squad [limited edition sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/squid-game-palermo) were designed just in time for the release of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle film starring Megan Fox, Alan Ritchson, Johnny Knoxville and many more. These high-top shoes come with a dapper [forest green leather upper](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glowaconstrictor) that perfectly mimics the scaly skin of the turtles. The laces are bright orange just like the Ninja Turtle's shell. The soles are a chic camouflage pattern that pops against the neon orange tongue logo and side detailing that is cleverly designed in the outline of the letter 'M' that stands for 'mutant'.
