Yankee Kicks unveils a look online at the upcoming GPS sneaker model that is made in collaboration with Tom Sachs in a neutral tonal colorway. It is designed in a Field Brown tone and it is set to launch officially on February 5th for the usual price of $110.
The new GPS silhouette boasts earthy tones throughout with a suede material that makes up the upper and is then secured by black laces. The contrasting black hue continues at the Swoosh branding on the side and the midsole base foundation to ensure that the silhouette remains minimal. It made its first appearance last year in September 2022. Rounding out the shoe are the mesh paneling and the unique toebox mudguard.
