Following its second collaboration with SAUCONY earlier this month, Nottingham-based label Universal Works has just presented its latest footwear collection, connecting with Yogi Footwear to “echo the cinematic mood” set by Universal Works’ “Far From Memphis” collection.The collection, which is built on shared ideas about style, comfort, and craft, features five shoes, including two versions of Yogi’s chunky, ranger-style Finn Moc. Additionally, Yogi’s Hitch shoe is revitalized with low-top and slip-on features, while also complemented with an “undercurrent of playful experimentation.”Furthermore, Universal Works and Yogi’s partnership comes alongside a short film, celebrating the collaboration by capturing cinematics that evoke feelings from those moments in life when you believe nobody is watching.Commenting on the collaboration, Universal Works co-founder, David Keyte, said: “I have a genuine love of Yogi. They really do make something that can provide the comfort of a sneaker whilst fulfilling the need for a proper shoe. That’s easier said than done, but Yogi always manages to pull it off.”You can take a closer look at the new Yogi x Universal Works collaboration above and it’s available to shop via the official Universal Works website now.In other footwear news, check out the Nike Dunk Low “NBA Paris.”

First Look at the Nike Dunk Low “NBA Paris”
