Maison Mihara Yasuhiro introduces a new tonal and patterning iteration of the OG Sole shoe model for the season. This time around, the playful shoe gets a bright orange update and a bandana print throughout. The unique looks are further enhanced by unconventional fabrication as there are some paisley and floral that adorn the vibrant sneaker.
This is accompanied by white top-stitching detailing. The shoe rests on top of a white rubber sole and feature thick laces that loop through silver tonal eyelets. Additional details include the "MMY" accent that features instructions on how to wear the shoe based on the Japanese brand's values. The OG Sole Orange Bandana Print sneaker is now available online at Matchesfashion for $455 USD.
