Description
A fresh take on AMIRI’s iconic Skel silhouette, rendered in a refreshing mint green for the bold contemporary wardrobe.
The AMIRI Skel “Mint” sneakers reimagine one of the Los Angeles label’s most coveted silhouettes through a distinctly modern lens. Built upon the signature Skel Toe low-top platform, this iteration replaces the brand’s signature distressed leather with a clean, unblemished mint green leather upper, creating a striking contrast between the heritage construction and the unexpected colorway. The hand-distressed rubber sole remains a hallmark, lending each pair a uniquely worn character from the very first wear.
Crafted in Italy with meticulous attention to detail, the Skel “Mint” features the signature skeleton hand appliqué on the lateral side, a motif that has become synonymous with AMIRI’s rock-and-roll DNA. The padded leather collar, perforated toe box for breathability, and lace-up closure with waxed cotton laces ensure both comfort and visual depth. The pastel green hue offers a versatile neutral that bridges the gap between statement and staple.
Founded by Mike Amiri in 2014, the brand has redefined luxury streetwear by blending rebellious Californian spirit with European craftsmanship. The Skel silhouette, introduced as part of the label’s celebrated sneaker offerings, embodies this duality, making the “Mint” version a sought-after addition for collectors and style connoisseurs alike.

Premium Italian calfskin leather forms the foundation of the Skel “Mint,” offering a supple yet structured hand that holds creases beautifully over time. The full leather lining ensures breathability and a refined interior feel, while the natural rubber sole delivers both durability and the signature worn-in aesthetic AMIRI is celebrated for.
Styling
Pair these mint green Skel sneakers with washed black skinny denim, a relaxed white tee, and an oversized leather bomber for an effortlessly cool downtown look. For a more elevated approach, style them with cropped tailored trousers, a tonal knit, and a deconstructed blazer to let the unexpected pastel hue serve as the focal point of an otherwise monochromatic ensemble.
