Clarks Originals introduces yet another Wallabee collaboration -- this time, the footwear label works with KITH's Ronnie Fieg on a collection of the famed silhouette. The footwear model is delivered in five colorway options in the new partnership capsule -- comprised of either sand, purple, navy blue, olive green or burgundy. Fieg completes the silhouette in premium suede materials that are sourced from England to give it a luxe feel. Notably, the footwear is also lined with sheep fur to make it more suitable for the season with some warm elements.
The signature crepe sole remains intact and it is all tied together with rose gold metal plates that have both labels' branding engraved into it with suede hangtags as well. The collection is set to drop at KITH retail locations on November 9th and online the following day.
