With every passing year, the line between streetwear and the runway blurs more and more. As streetwear permeates into mainstream culture, premium brands have been taking inspiration from a culture that was born from more humble origins.
Inspired by the New York hip-hop culture from the ‘70s, the Coach Patchwork C210 High Top Sneaker pays homage to a sneaker icon; the Nike Air Force 1. It’s shape has been clearly inspired by the iconic footwear, sans the Nike swoosh. Using contrasting panels of premium Italian leathers and bold stitching, it stands out as a premium take on a streetwear icon. The padded collars and cushioned insoles provide all-day comfort, while the recessed ripple soles will reassuringly grip the concrete.
