Prada reintroduces the Toblach, a minimalist icon reborn
Prada brings back the Toblach, an archival favorite
prada toblach loafers

Just as with many luxury designers and houses, Prada’s history is full of archival designs that are ready to be reimagined. Focusing on Prada’s footwear for men, the fashion house has plenty of silhouettes to pick from that could easily become modern favorites. Now, Prada is taking from those archives and delivering to users fan-favorites that have been redone to meet contemporary needs and trends. The first of these archival revivals comes in the form of the Toblach. The Toblach was first introduced during the 1998 fall/winter collection and became one of the first formal sneakers to hit mainstream. A hybrid shoe ahead of its time, this elevated design got its form by taking inspiration from loafers and sailing-ready sneakers. In its newest form, the Toblach collection looks to bring back this hybrid style at a time when the trend seems only to become more popular.

PAM01000, a timepiece that brings the foundational DNA of the 1998 original into the present day. This is a precise re-creation that gives collectors a rare chance to possess a definitive era of watchmaking history, now equipped with the reliability of modern in-house manufacture.

Although it’s not the first time that Reebok and MARKET have worked together on a collaboration, it’s undoubtedly some of the boldest and most statement pieces the duo has released. Tapping into earthy tones and aquatic movements, this new collaborative collection embodies the dynamism you would expect from either brand. As to the inspiration of the collection, Mike Cherman, founder of MARKET, explained, “The inspiration for this collection was Land & Sea. Then we asked ourselves, ‘What if a strap sandal and a sneaker had a baby?’ You get this lightweight, open-air hybrid, made for hot days, wet feet, and spontaneous detours.” Based on this inspiration, the collection comes with two new bold designs and a series of apparel that meets the moment.
