Swedish fashion imprint Axel Arigato introduces the new Catfish Lo sneaker model for the season following the Catfish sneaker that launched back in 2019. This time around, it continues to channel a luxe leather tennis sneaker theme but in a few more muted colorways.

The shoes are made with inspiration drawn from popular 90s sneakers and the Catfish Lo is made by hand in Portugal. All of these are constructed from premium leather and mesh materials paneling along the silhouette. The shoes sit on top of a notable chunky custom thermoplastic rubber sole unit foundation. Additional details include the off-white tonal midsole that adds a slight contrast to the dual tonal design, rounded out by a rugged outsole.
