Take a First Look at Oakley and Junya Watanabe’s New Footwear Collab
For the SS25 season.
Oakley and Junya Watanabe are deepening their collaborative relationship with the first-look reveal of their forthcoming footwear offering. Fit for the Spring/Summer 2025 season, the brands have tossed up another low-cut model.
The new model boasts a technical futuristic silhouette that features an overlayed web design with mesh and molded plastic components. Alongside the standout webbed-like upper that yields circular shapes, the shoe also features suede fabric components on the heels. Adding to the shoe’s slightly rugged build is a chunky sole, curved toe guard and a traction-oriented sole.
To keep things simple, the two entities tossed the collaborative model in classic shades of black and white. The Oakley Factory Team and Junya Watanabe have teamed up on footwear in the past – seeing their ruggedly sleek Chop Saw Mules. The collab updated the classic Oakley silhouette with a dark personality and mixed fabrics that feature suede, neoprene and more.
So with the latest collab, the two are continuing to prove that they not only like making shoes together, they do it pretty well. Stay tuned for more details on the forthcoming silhouette.
