Palm Angels has been busy this summer, expanding its offerings to include new apparel and accessories like the plastic Padlock Bag and flame sneakers.
The sneakers have a distressed look to them, with the low-rise skater model accented with large flame embellishments on the sides that stand out in stark contrast against the rest of the sleek black and cream-toned uppers. Palm Angels' branding is featured boldly on the sides of the midsoles as well. With slight scuff marks already added to the flame sneakers, they look as though they've been pre-worn, helping consumers to maintain the rugged streetwear look that they might be going for.
The flame sneakers are currently available from international retailers such as Farfetch, where they sell for $462 USD.
