The Mark McNairy x Union LA x Heineken 'Classic Saddle Shoe' has been made in association with the beer brand's 'Heineken 100' program, an initiative that looks at some of the top contemporary influencers. McNairy and Union LA proved to be prime collaborators, each working to bring about distinctive takes on style and menswear.
The Classic Saddle Shoe incorporates eyelets, sleek white laces and polished slabs of black leather. While these elements would be expected of any current male shoe line, McNairy, Union LA and Heineken added a unique twist with mint green soles. This is of course a direct reference to the Heineken's iconic green beer bottles which have been as essential to its success as its tasty ales.
