PATRICK was born out of Esprit. The pair released this time will be based on the ‘NEVADA’ retro running shoe popular in the 1980s, an updated model using ‘254 LIMONTA DAVIS’ nylon in the upper from Italian fabric manufacturer Limonta. With the combination of high-density nylon and top quality Steerhide leather also lending the world famous designer brand a seal of approval, it gives a grace and elegance to the casual style of summer.

On the other hand, Sport shoe brand Walsh continues crafting the things it makes since its foundation in 1961. Beloved by founder Mr. Norman Walsh as a masterpiece that supported top runners as they ran the London Marathon in 1980, the ‘TORNADO’ was reprinted with a total of five classic colours. The white line on either side applied to the Nylon/Suede body is striking, with an outsole that promises outstanding comfort made by Vibram.
