Green Day bassist designs vegan trainer

Mike Dirnt, bassist with punk rock band Green Day, has designed his own trainer made from 100 per cent vegan materials.

The trainer is made out of fake leather and features a custom water-based synthetic adhesive to completely avoid using any animal products.

It is the product of a collaboration with shoe maker Macbeth and is the second time Dirnt has teamed up with the company.

"I always love working with Macbeth. We have worked flawlessly since day one and I am excited to continue our collaborative efforts," said Dirnt.

"Our first studio collaboration got great feedback and I am confident that everyone will appreciate my second design. I am extremely excited to get it out in stores and see the response."

The vegan trainer is set for release in the autumn of 2010.

Green Day play three UK gigs this summer, starting at the Old Trafford cricket ground in Manchester on June 16th.
