Manchester-based imprint CLINTS introduces its latest footwear offering, the TRL FOOTPRINTS 2.0 in 'Stone Cold,' which is driven by Japanese inspiration. The new silhouette comes in a clean grey, black, and blue-toned palette, emphasizing practical textured fiber parts and opulent suede panels. The design serves as inspiration for the larger apparel collection that will debut simultaneously with the 'Stone Cold' sneaker.
A standout tracksuit with a definite '90s sporting vibe is centered around the color scheme of the shoes. The zippers may be undone to show more blue paneling on the leg. This accentuates the features of the shoes when worn as a complete outfit. Although utility pockets on the jacket offer an unexpected twist to the Northern uniform classic, contrast branding covers the two-piece set.
Other collection highlights include a grey mohair crewneck sweater and a set of blue denim overalls.
The 'Stone Cold' collection debuts via raffle on April 7.
