Following the release of Prada‘s Fall/Winter 2018 collection last month, we get a closer look at the line in the brand’s latest editorial. Focused on its chunky industrial footwear silhouette, the Mechano, the photoshoot showcases the sneaker alongside Prada’s signature cold-weather nylon staples, including bags, hats and outerwear.

Looking to the utilitarian Mechano as a muse, the Prada lookbook is set inside of a warehouse with functional, industrial accents like plastic barrels, cables and scaffolding — each of which play up the inspiration behind the newly-minted silhouette. Available in three color accents–blue, green and orange–which are paired with an upper constructed from materials including leather, suede and technical nylon, the tough-looking Mechano is a fashion-forward take on workwear. Prada logos on the tongue, midsole, heel and velcro strap, complete the offering.

Check out the full editorial above, and head over to Prada.com to shop the Mechano along with the complete Fall/Winter 2018 collection.
