WAKOUWA, founded by ANATOMICA in 2009, has collaborated with Needles on a special deck shoe. Based on military deck shoes from the 1940s, the molded outsole and vulcanisation makes for a flexible and durable shoe. The beautiful form and comfortable fit is due to WAKOUWA's specialty wooden lasts.
The sole is around 1.5 times thicker than an average model, but is still extremely lightweight. High-rebound insoles add to the comfort over long periods of wearing.
The suede Oxford model will be available in limited quantities at Nepenthes London from November. View online here.
