Off-White’s Design Ethos is Expanding with a Pair of Flip-Flops
Off-White’s design ethos has surely been one of the most popular aesthetics in contemporary street culture. It has reached the point of bold status affirmation and this is a place many brands seek to be.
The newest release of Virgil Abloh’s largely successful label is the Off-White Industrial Flip-Flops which fully borrow the aesthetic of the incredibly popular Industrial Belt.
The summery footwear boasts an EVA base that is supportive and durable. The iconic Off-White design is communicated with arrow motifs at the heel, as well as “the same notation print found on the belt.”
The Industrial Flip-Flops are made available in three color combinations – Yellow/Black, Black/White, and Beige/Black. They retail for $150 USD on SSENSE.
