END., the UK-based retailer known for its curated selection of high-end fashion and sneakers, has again delved into footwear collaborations. This time, END. partners with Japanese brand SUBU, known for their cozy, functional slippers that bridge the gap between indoor and outdoor wear. With the growing popularity of comfortable yet stylish footwear, SUBU’s slippers have become a staple, and this latest collaboration brings a utilitarian twist to the original design.
In this new Utility version, END. and SUBU reimagine the silhouette by incorporating outdoor-ready features. The slippers feature an upper of robust nylon, ideal for outdoor excursions, while a mesh panel on the toe enhances breathability. Adding a drawstring toggle, a new detail in this redesign allows for an adjustable fit and contributes to the utility-inspired aesthetic. SUBU branding is subtly placed on the collar, blending seamlessly with the overall monochromatic design, whether you opt for the White or Black colorway. Beneath the upper, a tonal rubber midsole and outsole provide solid traction, making these slippers suitable for indoor lounging and light outdoor activity.
The END x SUBU Utility Pack will release on August 22, 2024, exclusively through END. online and in-store. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $85.
