White Mountaineering and Merrell Gear Up for AW24
Gorpcore styles remain a firm feature of the sneaker scene, and with the AW24 previews coming thick and fast, we can expect to see brands get even more techy as the months go on. Having collaborated last year on Merrell’s Wrapt Mid sneakers, and are back for another run-out, this time on the .
Working on top of the chunky trail silhouette, the duo have dialled up the details with printed uppers and co-branding hits. Arriving in a mix of tonal blue shades, these uppers take on a cloud print look while White Mountaineering branding runs along the lateral sidewalls. The pair’s overlays sport a gradient detail, starting with dark blue hits at the toe that fade into a much lighter one towards the heel, and the pair's midsole unit also follows suit here. Extra techy features come in the form of reflective heel tabs, and of course, the style boasts the treatment for an added dose of practicality.
So far we’ve only seen early looks at the White Mountaineering x Merrell Moab Speed 2, and any release details are yet to follow. In the meantime, make sure to keep it locked to Sneaker Freaker for all the latest info.
