Puffer-Like Collaborative Loafers

Suicoke Joins District Vision on a Pair of Insulated Loafers

— November 2, 2023 — Fashion
Japanese imprint Suicoke works in collaboration with District Vision as the duo presents a pair of Insulated Loafers in time for the colder seasons of the year. These mark the second time that the two forces are joining and it remixes the PEPPER silhouette defined by its padded upper for comfort and is supported by a quilted pattern throughout.

It joins the Fall/Winter 2023 lineup. Other details include the TREK outsole unit to provide traction which is from Suicoke's expertise. Other technicalities include the EVA footbed by Suicoke with insulation along the uppers to keep wearers warm, similar to the functions of a puffer jacket. It is rounded out by branded silicone badges and a shock cord for adjustment.
