How did your relationship with Patta come about and what will they be contributing to the release?
First off, everyone in Amsterdam (and dare we say it, even Holland) knows Patta, it’s THE place to cop your shoes. We already knew Guillaume from Patta personally because he often drops into parties that we throw in Amsterdam. As soon as we came up with the idea to release a Limited Edition L.A. Gear, he was the first person we called to help make the collaboration come about!
I know you ladies have thought of everything and left no (rhine) stone unturned with this release. What are some of the extras that will come along with the shoes?
We thought that if ladies go and stand in line for this shoe, we have to give them something special in return. So it’s not only the shoe that gives you a luxurious feeling with the soft infrared nubuck and the sweet magenta satin lining, it’s the whole package. The shoes come with an L.A. Gear x Patta tee and different colour laces, so you can knock yourself out rocking those old school checkerboard and weave lace-ups. And don’t forget the special infrared shoebox that nobody is going to want to throw away!
