Sportswear label Umbro took to South Korea to originally launch its Bumpy sneakers last year in March -- now the label dropped the silhouette in Europe as well. The sneakers sold out in a mere three days when they first hit markets and will have a wider spread to new regions this time around. The Bumpy sneakers are affordably priced at $140 USD a pair and it exudes a 90s design aesthetic with its chunky shape. The shoes feature an upper constructed from leather, suede and mesh materials. There are also muted Umbro branding details, reflective panels and a back pull loop.
The Bumpy sneakers sit atop of a chunky sole constructed from synthetic rubber materials and phylon. There are three colorways available -- black, multicolor and white. The sneakers are now available for purchase online at Umbro's UK website.
