SNEAKERS: Kidrobot. Shoes for a more mature bot
Kidrobot x Shofolk:The Alaric
While no one was looking, they hopped into the sack…and now we’ve got The Alaric on our hands! Don’t they say interracial couples make the best looking babies, well same goes for shoes! And just like my parents did, they even gave this shoe a fancy name they can hardly pronounce (lucky for me, they had two trial attempts on my brother and sister first). Alaric was a Visigothic King, and its also a Germanic name that, when broken down, means Ala “everyone’s” and ric “ruler”.
This Alaric is a great transition shoe, in that its oxford qualities are a “shoe-in” for your work/business-casual functions; meanwhile its trainer physique can take you to the streets when the clock strikes 3:30pm (hey! they don’t call them “everyone’s ruler” for nothing, get the shoes to command everyone to go home early!). Made from gray suede with blue accents, the shoe has tons of detail work including the Robothead logo etched into the suede and a multi-colored Kidrobot label on the heel.
As per usual with Kidrobot collabs, only 100 pairs of the shoes are being produced and will retail at £120. They’ll be available at Kidrobot stores, Folk’s London location, as well as online.
