NEEDLES and Suicoke Join Forces on a Set of Geta Sandals
Iconic Japanese brands NEEDLES and Suicoke join forces to launch a collection full of unique Geta Sandals. The duo nod to its roots and heritage with the traditional piece. The new selection of footwear is perfect for the warmer seasons upon us.
The most notable design element of this collaboration is found at the outsole, which boasts a lugged sole unit that allows the pairs to connect together in a similar manner as LEGO bricks. This makes it very simple to pack and enhances its portability. Every pair comes with a tote bag as well, which encourages the shoe to be a favorable option on the go. The tote bags that come with the pairs are designed in the same design as the print seen on the sandals' thong.
