2G works in collaboration with Japanese footwear label SUICOKE on a new iteration of the ZAVO shoe. The silhouette boasts a slip-on design that is suitable for different seasons of the year. It is spotlighted by its fuzzy design language over the forefoot section.
The shoes keep wearers warm with the textile, delivering faux fur across the construction, sitting on top of a Vibram sole unit foundation for additional comfort. There are two colorways of the ZAVO that drop, both of which boasts neutral palettes for the colder seasons of the year: cream and gray. The shoes are held together with a midfoot strap and have branding details engraved at the footbed sections to round out the silhouette.
