Clae Parker

Remember Clae mark one, those underrated skate-style shoes at the beginning of the last decade with a spot of extra design flair? Sung knows good shoe design (and as a mind behind PNB and Triple 5 Soul back when they were good, he knows about more than footwear) but he was a little ahead of his time the first time around. Thankfully he returned a few years back, using that vast amount of amassed industry experience to create something very distinctive indeed. These are casual styles with no pretence of performance, but fanboys will see the visual cues in the mix regardless, and they're significantly flyer than most luxury lines commanding a heftier price tag. Can we break rank and copy from Clae's own site, given that their copywriting game is tight? "Bringing a new energy into footwear, the Parker combines a simple athletic sole with a classic casual contour. A complement of rich pull up leathers together with the superior cushioning of a custom molded foot-bed will have you strolling through the streets in no time." J. Peterman himself couldn't have put it better
