Nicole McLaughlin unveils her newest collaborative project done alongside Merrell 1TRL. The shoes surfaced online with photographs taken from Paris Fashion Week Men's. In recent years, the brand has been rebranding itself from the chunky dad shoe towards a more trendy trail sneaker model.
The collaborative shoes seem to be a pair of slip-on shoes that are constructed from a meshy material with paneled accents. It features an earthy tone and will be released later this year. McLaughlin spoke to Highsnobiety earlier this year after her Reebok project, stating “This is just my beginning in the collaborative footwear space. I have some exciting things coming up for 2023 and beyond that, I’m really looking forward to sharing. Stay tuned!”
