After the successful 2016 collaboration on the Fusion 2.0 model, KARHU and Footpatrol team up once again with the Legacy 96 being the model of choice.
Footpatrol’s Creative Brand Lead Asheeba Charles was keen to tap into Helsinki’s Fashion & Streetwear scene and wanted to work alongside a Finnish designer on a three-way apparel & footwear collaboration.
Finnish designer Sasu Kauppi a Central Saint Martin’s graduate was called upon and embraced the project immediately. Before launching his own unisex streetwear brand SSSU, Kauppi was design director and head of menswear design at YEEZY.
Presented in a Paloma Grey & White colourway, the KARHU x Footpatrol x SSSU Legacy 96 takes advantage in using premium materials throughout. Hairy suede material is used across the entire toebox area with reflective detail overlays atop. Pig skin suede is used on the toe cap and heel.
Release on Saturday 31st of October at 12:00 am CET.
