Japanese imprint F/CE works in collaboration with heritage American label Danner on a new iteration of the Danner Light silhouette. It has a minimal design language that has a tonal palette of black or sage green coated with GORE-TEX materials for a weatherized feel. It also switches between either a smooth or gridded finish.

Additional details include the speckled paracord laces that wrap around the shoe to hold the foot in place. It is held by metallic hooks and tightens using pull cord closures. The collar is printed with the F/CE slogan that reads "Functionality, Culture, Exploration" paired together with the co-branded tongue tabs. It all rests on top of a thick Vibram sole unit for a rugged design.
