The models elevated by the utilitarian signature of Engineered Garments and the classic minimalism of K-Swiss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Daiki Suzuki, the founder and creative director of Engineered Garments, says that he became a fan since he first saw K-Swiss in the 1980s while working at a store in Tokyo. Suzuki adds that his favorite car from the era is honored in the brown Classic GT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Engineered Garments x K-Swiss Classic GT is available in three hues and embodies the Japanese brand&#8217;s love of asymmetry by way of the reimagined cuts and materials. Case in point: the use of several D-rings and the combination of leather and suede in the uppers&#8217; construction are two prominent examples of the investigation of asymmetry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFor K-Swiss it was an honor to collaborate with Engineered Garments\u2014a brand that, just as ours, seeks to elevate designs, posing the question of how to redefine a Classic,\u201d said Senior Designer of Collaborations, Jon Tang. \u201cThis collaboration speaks to our identity, to push the limits of what elevated Classics can be.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They&#8217;ll be available at the two parties&#8217; webstores and select retailers from 12 May with an RRP of US$115.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Elsewhere, consider a look at the <a href=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/2023\/05\/12\/rick-owens-drkshdw-x-converse-turbodrk-laceless-hi-release-date\/?slide=right\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rick Owens DRKSHDW x Converse TURBODRK Laceless Hi<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/snkrdunk_int\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"970\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy.webp\" alt=\"Magazine-Bottom-Banner\" class=\"wp-image-22285\" srcset=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy.webp 970w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-300x93.webp 300w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-768x238.webp 768w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-282x87.webp 282w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 970px) 100vw, 970px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The NEPENTHES&#8217; New York-based label Engineered Garments has partnered with the iconic Los Angeles shoemaker, K-Swiss, for its most latest foray into footwear.
