Japanese designer Mihara Yasuhiro has released a new series of Spring/Summer 2022 OG Sole Low Top sneakers in a range of new colorways. The new offerings will be sold through the online retailer HBX.
The OG Sole Low Top maintains most of the original sneaker's design, including its signature hand-molded rubber soles. However, the new lineup introduces new elements such as silver-toned eyelets, rounded toes, and over-dyed canvas uppers.
Headlining the new collection is the Peterson Low Top, which comes dressed in alternating navy and black colors and features an upper canvas material adorned with white top-stitching, a padded collar, and a rubber sole. Another standout sneaker is the brown Baker Low Top, which features a unique distressed effect throughout the model.
