Stella McCartney continues to work in collaboration with sportswear giant adidas as the two present a new iteration of a Clogs silhouette for the season. The shoes are designed with a slip-on look inspired by those who dive along the coast of South Korea for fish and to clean the water as well.
It is made to have a lightweight feel and sits on top of a grippy outsole unit, making it a go-to shoe for walking through the city or at the beach. The Clogs are made with renewable natural materials with its one-piece design of bio-based EVA throughout the upper. It is lined with synthetic materials and competes with an overarching footstrap. It is detailed with floral patterns and hues of Tent Green, Crew Orange, and Cloud White.
