JiyongKim creates special clothing bleaching the materials from the sun and he is bringing this technique to the application of textiles on Clarks Footwear designs. The British imprint gets a four-piece collection by the designer and it splits up into two parts.
One of them is only available to view by appointment, which is taking place in Paris at the designer's showroom from June 20-25th. The other half will be launched later this summer and will be available to shop. There hasn't been an official date of when these shoes are set to drop yet. The ones that are available to view in Paris include the iconic Wallabee silhouette and the Desert Trek -- these are bleached with a pattern unique to their own.
