An Eternal Pair Awaiting Departure
Introducing the "CRUISE LINE" from PATRICK, a sneaker brand born from French esprit and Japanese craftsmanship.
While maintaining a simple design, their distinctive flared welts evoke the look of authentic deck shoes. The upper is crafted from select kip leather by Annonay, a French tannery renowned for its durability and exquisite sheen. Imagine them bearing the memories of your journey, weathered by the sea breeze.
The last was meticulously refined into a timeless, elegant egg-toe design. A thick rubber sole provides excellent cushioning for comfort and enhances your silhouette.
Furthermore, the insoles feature a 2cm cup sole designed for comfort during extended wear, offering a sensation akin to walking on clouds.
The "CRUISE LINE" project involved fashion director Yoshimasa Hoshiba, a passionate sea traveler and a multifaceted media personality, as producer. These sneakers were crafted with a deep consideration for the traveler's story, rather than merely incorporating superficial marine aesthetics, inviting you on a new journey.
