Fashion imprint Rick Owens DRKSHDW introduces its latest Abstract sneaker design that is available to shop online on SSENSE for the price of $730. The shoes stray away from traditional materials such as leather or canvas and highlight the Halloween season with a unique hairy design.
The shoes come in the colorway options of either black, brown, or cream and it made with disorderly faux fur across the upper. This creates the illusion that it resembles a creature for an avant-garde look. The sides of the shoes have a zipper that lies beneath the fur and is complete with a lacing system as well. It has a dynamic midsole base foundation and a high-top silhouette to round out the look.
