Sneaker Pimp: Clae Russell



Clae is relatively new to the sneaker scene but its designer has been around for a long time doing stints at Triple Five Soul, Supreme, and DC Shoes. Although sporty looking, Clae shoes are not for skateboarding but strictly for casual wearing.

WAD magazine describes it best; Clae provides footwear for adults who don't want works shoes, but don't really want to look as if they're refusing to grow up either. Its minimalist design aesthetic and sober colorways are the epitome of discretion.

My favorite model is the Russell in white. It is a proper classic high-top. Only problem I see is it will likely wear out faster than most shoes since it's all-white. The Russell looks bloody fantastic though.
