It highlights the beloved gummy bears across a range of familiar sneaker silhouettes -- this includes the Sk8 Hi, Old Skool, and the Slip On shoes.
Starting off with the Sk8 Hi sneaker, it s decorated with the famous Haribo message that reads "The Happy World of Haribo" on the blue panel along the upper. The heel is also accented with the Dancing Bear motif. Other details include a canvas construction, rubber midsole unit, the suede jazz stripe, and the classic Off the Wall badges for branding.
