Emerging UK Label Ronning Has Hand-Made Your Next Everyday Sneaker
You can’t go wrong with a classic GAT style.
Magnus Ronning‘s eponymous London label, Ronning, has shown that diversification is the way to succeed. With a slew of statement pieces such as its much-loved lace shirt, an ongoing collaboration with Solovair, and a homeware line, Ronning has created a uniform for its loyal followers — and now comes its sneaker.
Dubbed the TYPE 0-3 EVERYDAY SNEAKER, Ronning’s silhouette is evidently inspired by Maison Margiela’s Replica sneaker, and in turn, the original Germany Army Trainer (GAT). But, this is no bad thing, as a classic style is a classic for a reason, and now Ronning adds its touch to the silhouette (as brands such as adidas Originals has done with its BW Army offering) to create a pair of shoes fit for all occasions.
Crafted from premium white leather — so soft you can see the textural finish in the images — and light gray suede for appliqués on the mid-panel, toe, vamp and heel, we find subtle touches including silver foiled Ronning branding on the tongue and soft leather insoles. The luxurious pair is rounded off with a traditional gum outsole and white laces, and to up the ante, the style has been handmade in Portugal.
The Ronning TYPE 0-3 EVERYDAY SNEAKER will drop online at 8 p.m. BST (3 p.m. EDT) on October 9, coming in sizes EU 39-46. Take a closer look at the deliciously well-executed pair above.
