Kuribo's Shoe

 * Only available in World 5-3. In order to obtain it, Mario must hit the Goomba wearing it from underneath; any other attack destroys the shoe as well. While wearing it, Mario can jump higher than normal and stomp enemies that would otherwise hurt him on contact (such as Spinys and Piranha Plant), and he can still throw fireballs as well. If hit, he loses the shoe but not his powers; he automatically discards the shoe at the end of 5-3.
