Reimagining both shoes with an untamed spirit that reflects the “FULL-THROTTLE” theme, the Korean label draws inspiration from the speed and vibrancy of the country’s street life. The Mostro Cage maintains its low-profile shape but adds drama through the incorporation of an asymmetrical spiked sole and toe, enhancing its tonal, stealthy appeal. Its mixed upper, composed of woven and suede-like fabrics, provides a subtle textural foundation for this radical update.Meanwhile, the Talon model sports a suede upper, distinguished by a rubbery, “claw”-like Formstrip that wraps around the shoe. This unique overlay gently catches the light with every step, creating a striking textural contrast against the soft suede. Both models are embedded with subtle co-branding, signaling the partnership. View this post on InstagramA post shared by SAN SAN GEAR (@sansan_gear)
