MARR TURNS SHOE DESIGNER

Former THE SMITHS star JOHNNY MARR has designed a new line of limited-edition charity sneakers.

Only 216 pairs of the sports shoes will be manufactured and available at select stores in America and Britain.

Marr, who is now the guitarist with cult US indie act Modest Mouse, has teamed up with shoe company PF Flyers to create the trainers.

A batch of the shoes will be sold at auction to raise funds for a special-education school in Marr's native Manchester, England.
