California’s BAIT is teaming up with Colorado locals Akomplice to drop a special silhouette of the Onitsuka Tiger shoe, the Colorado Eighty-Five “6,200 FT” – to mark the first anniversary of the label.
The shoe packs many nods to the Colorado brand, sporting braided hiking laces and reinforced ripstop panels – both of which are essential on the ski fields of the Rocky Mountains. The colourway of red, white, blue and yellow which resemble the Colorado state flag. The homages to the slopes continue inside the shoe, with an emblazoned ski map on the in-sole that reappears on the back of the hangtag, which also doubles as a lift ticket.
The collection is super limited with just 504 pairs being made. Launching on BAIT’s October 19th anniversary, the shoe is sure to be a sellout. If your keen for a pair you can register here for a chance to cop a pair on release.
