New York City-based streetwear retailer KITH presents its new collaboration with Crocs highlighting the Echo Storm silhouette. It is defined by the wavy elegant lines that are seen throughout the upper in place of where the usual perforated holes are found.
The shoes are made from an entirely contoured silhouette using Crocs' 100% vegan and bio-based Croslite material resting on top of a plush neoprene base sock to provide comfort throughout the day. It is finished with a lightweight mesh vent to add a touch of breathability to the footwear. Additionally, the silhouette has a dramatic midsole that is built with medial vent holes to continue with the breathability notion with a front pull tab detailed with branding.
