KAPITAL introduces a new sneaker model for the warmer season entitled the 'MA-1 sneaker' and it is a signature German militaristic trainer model. It is complete in white and gray hues as the colorway and the uppers are constructed from a blend of both suede and nylon materials, drawing inspiration directly from militaristic outerwear.
Specifically, the sneakers highlight the MA-1 flight bomber jacket, which is a coat worn by NASA astronauts originally in blue and white colors. Small details of the jacket are seen across the sneaker's makeup, including the snap buttons found on the lateral side, the chunky leather pull tabs found at the front zippers, the quilted nylon materials, the pen pocket at the tongue, and the toebox.
