Men's KAS WM ￥18,000 yen + tax
UGG, whose boots and a wide range of other shoes are popular with men and women alike, and White Mountaineering, whose recent collection in Paris was also well received, have collaborated on a new line of shoes. The base of the first collaboration between the two companies is the "KAS," a popular espadrille model from "UGG," featuring a bold design with the "WHITE" logo.
The release date is July 9 (Sat), and they will be available at some of Ag's directly managed stores, its official website, and the White Mountaineering Daikanyama store.
Checking the design in detail, the first thing that strikes you is the "WHITE" box logo on the upper. T-shirts and other items using the same logo are extremely popular both domestically and internationally. While the use of the logo is bold, the detailed design treatment is heartbreaking, with the leather piping at the footwear opening and the leather parts of the heel unified in white to match the white color of the print. The good match with the navy upper can be said to be ironclad. The heel is embossed with the logos of both White Mountaineering and Ag.
Espadrilles have already become an indispensable part of spring and summer fashion, including summer resort and comfort styles, but espadrilles are generally plain or bordered, and there are not many designs with this kind of logo on the front. . Because they are a classic item, we want to enjoy designs with this kind of hook.
. Also, the low color count makes it a great item for styling. Here is a look from White Mountaineering's 17ss, and you can see that it blends in well with the total styling and is perfect for a relaxed look.
Incidentally, "Ag" is a brand synonymous with sheepskin. The iconic sheepskin detail on the inside of the heel is also used in this "typical" pair. The previous collaborations with White Mountaineering have attracted a lot of attention and are likely to sell out in no time. It would be better to keep an eye on the release date.
