The latest collection sits on top of the rubber platform made by Vibram and delivers two colorway options of the Mischa silhouette. It has a sturdy construction connecting to the lugged outsole to provide durability and a bit of height. The mule boasts a chunky design and features furry details as well. This is informed by rabbit fur and paired together with adjustable tanned leather strap that wraps around the forefoot area of the shoe. The Commando series is available at stockists including Knockout, COVERCHORD, and Jackpot.
