Strange Matter Simple Sneakers

Purchased from Barney’s, worn twice. Retail for $360. Italian calfskin, suede tongue and heel tab. Wholecut upper. Handsewn backstay with waxed cotton laces. Strange Matter offers a minimalist collection of handcrafted sneakers. The New York-based brand incorporates premium Italian leather and suede. Made with stitch-and-turn technique, like ballet shoes, so that construction is hidden within the shoe to achieve the cleanest and most simple exterior possible. Similar to common projects.
