In addition, the collection will include apparel items, all of which will leverage colors from the [classic Brazilian flag](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/orketro-brazil). Aside from the new colorways, the Stepper sneakers maintain the original model's silhouette. They still arrive with a low-slung design, canvas uppers, and embroidered text reading 'Step Correct' on their lateral sides. What's more, the sneakers also bring back the built-in zip-up pocket and extra-thick tongues. For those interested, the entire collection -- sneakers and apparel -- is set to be released on July 10 and will be available to purchase on Clint's website.
