mastermind JAPAN joins forces with Italian footwear imprint SearchNDesign for a special drop, centering around a unique silhouette dubbed the “Ghost Sox.”

The “Ghost Sox,” named for the removable neoprene sock inside the shoe, blend Japanese heritage with progressive sneaker design; the inner sock can be removed and worn when entering a house. Italian vegetable-tanned leather uppers feature minute holes on the toe for breathability, gold eyelets and a lace-crossing strap for foot support. A zipper on the heel of the sneaker eases wearability and tonal laces, matching the red, black and white colorways, keep the shoe looking clean. mastermind’s iconic skull logo appears on the outside heel and tongue of the sneakers, while the insoles feature co-branding.

Look for the sneakers to drop alongside a matching hoodie and T-shirt on February 1 for €1,217 EUR, or approximately $1,490 USD on SearchNDesign’s website. For more Italian leather sneakers, check out Vans Vault’s latest Old Skool pack.
