Tom Wood, a jewelry brand known for its distinct yet understated styles, has teamed up with iconic Japanese footwear label Suicoke to launch the Makö Clog, a one-of-kind footwear silhouette named after a small island off the Eastern coast of Norway.
So far, the Makö Clog is being offered in just two colorways: a black Nappa leather and green suede version, both of which arrive with custom gunmetal labeling. In addition, both silhouettes incorporate Sucicoke's iconic PU suede footbed and running sole unit.
Overall, the design of the new clog maintains both brands' penchant for luxury styles while bridging into the avant-garde footwear space. According to Tom Wood, customers can expect the Makö Clog to come out sometime in April, where it will be sold at various retailers around the world.
