Streetwear imprint Needles works in collaboration with sandal expert Suicoke on a collaborative design in the form of the 'Thong Sandal.' The new footwear delivers a new take on the traditional Japanese Setta design and there are two colorway options in total of either black or purple.
The sandals boast a brand new Wurstel sole by Vibram and it features a corrugated detail at the outsoles to that the left and right outsoles interlock when placed together. This element makes carrying or storage purposes easier. The upper thong straps are constructed from a satin fabric material to deliver additional comfort. This component also features some subtle detail with small red and yellow squares accented on the two colorways.
