Italian restaurant Sant Ambroeus works in collaboration with sportswear label PUMA on an unconventional partnership where the duo re-designs the Suede silhouette to celebrate authentic Italian dining experiences. The sneaker pack is entitled 'Friends and Family' and it is created to represent the restaurant's intricate craftsmanship and careful attention to detail. This idea is translated in the form of its suede uppers done in a white and leather lining that is soft to the touch.
The label's signature formstrip is still prominent with a Rosa Pink hue at its lateral and Cerulean Blue across its medial side. As another nod to the restaurant, there is a dove emblem created in gold foil to round off the entire design while commemorating all the restaurant's locations in Palm Beach, New York, and Southampton.
