Fashion label SWEARS blends both function and fashion with its new Nori sneaker silhouette for the Spring/Summer 2018 season. The footwear model boasts a low cut ankle and the name nods to its designer Takanori. He designed the silhouette with the concept of infusing minimalist Japanese designs with outdoor aesthetics. This resulted in the Nori, a sleek shape designed to combat urban adventures.
Additionally, the shoe can be completely personalized with the label's digital customizing platform. It gives consumers full control of a plethora of options -- with choices of lace trimming, and colors of the rubber toe cap and nylon uppers. There is also the option to add one's initials in silver or gold embellishments. SWEAR's Nori sneakers are now available to shop online for the price of $325 USD.
