The Disruptor shoe was FILA's iteration of the popular chunky footwear aesthetic, and now, the nostalgic sneakers have been updated to feature a unique texture and colorway.
The shoe's upper features a neutral shade titled 'Turtle Dove' which elicits a more low-key look. The shoes have been finished with tonal laces and textured paneling that features suede updates, making for a more dynamic look that's both contemporary and nostalgic. To complete the look, the FILA logo has been stamped across the shoe's upper and tongue, as well as along the shoe's chunky sole.
These shoes are perfect for pairing with a more vibrant outfit as its neutral aesthetic can be paired with nearly any color.
