Beast-Inspired Sneakers

24 Kilates Helped to Create Shoes Made with Fear and Gore in Mind

'24 Kilates,' a footwear brand that's based in Barcelona, collaborated with 'Brooks Heritage' for a limited edition pair of sneakers that are inspired by the look and fear of a monstrous beast.

This comes from the dark-toned colorway that makes up the sneakers, with a deep black contrasting with a vibrant blood-colored scarlet. On the tongue is the image of a demonic animal. The embroidered design shows it with hollow eyes, powerful ram horns and an upside down cross on its forehead. The shoes boast a quality structure as well, made from suede and leather and featuring a well-loved previously tested model.

24 Kilates and Brooks Heritage promote the theme of the sneakers with photos that display it against a backdrop of blood and red-lit abandoned areas. With this, the brands make clear the unique design and dark colorway that adorns the shoes.
