It’s always interesting to see brands cross genres to team up with people from other industries. This time, Onitsuka Tiger collaborated with Mini on the R55 to celebrate the release of the Mini Clubman. The shoes come in three colorways: white, silver, and dark blue. Various design elements of the shoes are inspired by the design of the Clubman itself, with the front of the shoes made to look like the grille of the car or the rounded heel shaped for the pedaling movement while driving the car. This is definitely a good collaboration for both parties. Now available at Ripe.
As many designers aim to create concept driven designs, no shortage of automotive and vehicular inspirations have been penned on the drawing board and ultimately made the cut into the final design. The latest car collabo features the new Mini Clubman teaming up with footwear brand Onitsuka Tiger to create a special model of the R 55. A handful of the Clubman’s design features were transfered to the R 55. Three different colorways are available this month at select Onitsuka Tiger retailers and Mini dealerships.
