Prada has played with different silhouettes and treatments in its footwear offering this season, including a futuristic edition of its signature Cloudbust sneaker and the Pegasus model with its ultra-chunky sole. Now the Italian label is taking things down with a fresh low-top silhouette, dressing it in a cozy knit upper with a color scheme fit for bumblebees.

The shoe features a heathered effect along the body, while a black toe cap and heel bring in a dark contrast. Yellow details are dotted throughout, including stripe designs along the tongue and side panels. Prada’s logo patch is featured on the lateral side for branding, while white laces offer a streamlined touch. A white foam rubber midsole and a black outsole finish it all off.

Priced at $820 USD, Prada’s yellow and black knit sneakers are available now from select retailers such as SSENSE and LUISAVIAROMA.
