ELM - Black

Launching our design collaboration collection between ourselves and Mr. Bailey (designer and product creative director here at ekn), we bring you our new winter collection handmade in Portugal and featuring a premium vegetable tanned suede upper with accompanying leather accents and a recycled and stitched Sole. Elegant design features are found throughout the diagonal lacing or through our new signature heel-loop detail, collaboration embossment at the heel and unique material blocking across the shoe. 
Our new collection aims high with it’s detailing, yet stays grounded by combining a classic silhouette with a premium handmade quality and contemporary design features.
The shoes will come with two pairs of laces: One pair of wax black laces and a pair of hiking-laces in grey/black. 
These products are constructed using the least amount of glue possible and are stitched to increase their durability and sustainability.
