After introducing the silhouette early last year, Onitsuka Tiger recently brought back the Samsara — essentially a deconstructed mid-top take on the old Colorado Eighty-Five — to serve as the canvas for its Spring 2017 collaboration with I Love Ugly. However, that ILU drop isn’t the only version of the kicks that’s on tap for the season at hand: Onitsuka Tiger has also introduced a brand new low-top edition of the silhouette. Simply dubbed the Samsara Low, the design stays true to the aesthetic of its predecessors and once again couples a deconstructed upper of suede and nubuck with the tooling of the Colorado Eighty-Five. These, however, more closely resemble the ’80s runner thanks to their low-top cut.

Debuting in clean black and white colorways and capped off with perforated branding, the Samsara Low is available now for $100 USD per pair from spots like KITH while supplies last.
