Off-White™ Ventures Into the Realm of Chunky Running Shoes
German military trainer meets HOKA ONE ONE.
Off-White™ delivers a new footwear silhouette that takes after modern-day running shoes. Straying from the high-top look, Off-White™ looks to the sportswear category of trainers, and comes up with the Jogger Suede And Shell Sneakers.
The uppers feature a lush, premium suede construction that’s ornamented by Virgil Abloh‘s signature use of his “Arrows” logo. In keeping with the brand’s design language, the directions “left” and “right” are placed at mirrored sides of the shoe’s heels. What sets this pair of trainers apart is the outsole. It’s in the outsole where we see the trending use of a large, chunky outsole. While the large sole may be an eyesore to some, it does merit a closer look as the quality Vibram outsole not only provides comfort, but also decent traction with its large-gripping ridges.
Those interested can find these over at MR PORTER for a price of £355 GBP (approximately $465 USD).
