Aprix is a footwear label by Brendon Babenzien and it releases a pack comprised of two sneaker options -- both sneakers take on the foundation of the signature APR005 model, but are completed in two constructional materials. The two different iterations showcase either a [canvas construction](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/field-general-82-3) or a [corduroy make up](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/one-star-pro-2).

The sneakers boast a low-top structure and come in the colorway options of either black, sage, or burgundy. All of the sneakers are completed with a rubber white sole which boasts skid-resistant elements. Branding details are seen on the racing tag over the outer quarter. Notably, the sneakers are lined completely with [leather materials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shadow-6000-ivy-prep) to give it an additional textile contrast along with a white lacing system.
