flaek kaalen hi

Almost two years ago, German footwear flaek kicked off a new initiative in hopes of creating a crowdsourced sneaker brand. After much work and deliberation, the brand’s inaugural model, the kaalen hi, is available now. The minimalistic high-top is handmade with the added benefit of having a plethora of sizing options including 15 sizes spread over 4 widths. With this in mind, customers are given the ability to customize sizing relative to differences in fit between the left and right foot. The sneaker is available to start with shipping to Germany, Austria and Switzerland with a retail price of €280 EUR (approximately $396 USD) for a uniform pair (same size for both feet) or €340 EUR (approximately $481 USD) for differential sizing. Available through your.flaek.com and 43einhalb.
