Known for infusing their handcrafts with fashion, 18 East is ready to add their touch to a new collaboration with Mephisto. Along with the French manufacturer, the New York-based clothing seller has created a new sneaker silhouette that does more than just ‘break the spectrum.’ Functional for streetwear or on the trails, this new sneaker has a fresh design that infuses aspects of your favorite footwear. Meant to add a slower living to your lifestyle, this sneaker is a prime example of what 18 East looks to achieve in the style space. Unlike others, the brand looks to design intentional creations that can fill a spot in your wardrobe. This new sneaker is a must for any wardrobe, along with Mephisto’s knack for crafting quality footwear.
18 East x Mephisto Break Spectrum
Crafted with Italian full-grain leather and rough-out suede, the new 18 East and Mephisto sneaker is available in neutral and chic colors. Made in France, the shoe features SOFT-AIR midsoles that help to reduce shock in each step. The design’s memory foam insole and heavy-duty lug pattern add extra cushion and all-terrain grip. Co-branded midfoot tags and an antique brass D-ring speed lacing system provide the style and security all users need. This low-top design comes in two colorways: a white/gray combination and a brown/green mix aptly nicknamed ‘Beef and Broc.’ Available via 18 East’s webstore, these sneakers retail for $414 and are bound to sell out quickly. While the sneaker doesn’t stray from your typical, everyday sneaker, the features and design allow it to become a special piece you can wear anywhere.
