Finished in an earthy, marbled colorway that leans into P.A.M.’s signature psychedelic aesthetic, the upper sits seamlessly atop a plush FloatMax™ foam midsole for enhanced, all-day comfort.

The sneaker’s robust upper is constructed from a durable, tear-resistant technical mesh layered with technical synthetic overlays, all fully protected by a waterproof GORE-TEX membrane to withstand harsh elements. The design utilizes a utilitarian bungee toggle lacing system, providing a secure, customizable fit while adding an industrial edge to the silhouette. Aesthetically, the shoe blends muted, outdoor-inspired base tones with sharp, contrasting pops of color along the sole and lace hardware, remaining true to P.A.M.’s eclectic design language. Performance is prioritized via a heavy-duty Vibram® rubber outsole equipped with deep lugs for superior multi-directional grip, while prominent co-branded hits on the tongue and lateral panels officially cement the partnership.
