Finnish label Karhu has followed up its monochrome “LEGEND” pack with the introduction of the all-new “Speckled” collection. Featuring two takes on the footwear brand’s Fusion 2.0 silhouette, the collection celebrates the use of EVA on the midsole.

The innovative material is regularly used on running and lifestyle sneakers, and consists of a shock-absorbing foam that is soft, light and flexible. Highlighting this detail, Karhu has added a speckled effect to the EVA midsole of each shoe, contrasting white flecks against either the pink or green base.

While the speckled aesthetic deliberately draws the eye to the midsole, the Fusion 2.0 has also been dressed in either a “Bright White/Pheasant” colorway or the Dawn “Blue/Sparrow” design. Take a look at both colorways in the gallery above, and expect them to arrive at Karhu’s web store, Helsinki flagship and Verona pop-up on March 26.
