Cozy Street-Informed Bright Mules

Off-White Presents the Comfortable Out of Office Mules

— October 13, 2022 — Fashion
Streetwear giant Off-White introduces its new Out of Office Mules that follow the Out of Office sneakers that have been a notable silhouette in the brand's roster for the past few seasons. It blends together design themes from basketball and skate footwear.

Now, the mule design offers a comfortable element to the sporty themes, creating a cozy slip-on design that is laceless over the forefoot. The upper is made from bold suede materials and sits on top of the same sole unit foundation. Each side of the shoe is detailed with an Arrow emblem with a neoprene sock lining and elastic strip for more security around the foot. Rounding out the shoe is a mesh insert at the top in place of the traditional lacing strip.
