KICKS LAB. x KEEN UNEEK BLACK [KL IBUKI]

This model is the first collaboration with KEEN, a company based in Portland, Oregon that has produced a series of innovative sports shoes called "hybrid footwear."
The open-air sneaker <UNEEK>, which is a model that symbolizes <KEEN>'s innovation, has been adopted as the base model for this collaboration.
＜UNEEK＞, which has a unique form made up of two cords and one sole, was designed with the concept of ``playing in the mountains'' such as picking wild vegetables and mushrooms, which have been popular in various parts of Japan since ancient times. It has a natural coloring that blends in with the Satoyama landscape.
The upper part with woven cords is unified in black, and the sole is made up of layers of black and brown.
Furthermore, the back strap with the original Real Tree camo has become an iconic feature of this collaboration model, making it a highly fashionable model that is suitable not only for the outdoors but also for the street.
<KICKS LAB.> continues to transmit cutting-edge sneaker culture from Harajuku, Tokyo, and in parallel with innovative product development, we are strong on the global environment and society through various environmental protection activities and social contribution activities. This collaboration is a true hybrid combination by <KEEN>, which has been sending out messages. It can be said that this is a special item that can only be created by <KICKS LAB.> and <KEEN>, which is a fusion of Portland, Harajuku, and the Japanese countryside.
