18 East x Padmore & Barnes: The Oakledge Hiker Low

Talk about a marriage made in mid-Atlantic heaven, one of out favourite US clothing brands has hooked up with OG Irish footwear gods Padmore & Barnes to create their fourth and arguable best collaborative piece of footwear. Constructed using cordura with an all weather Vibram Bifida sole, tonal stitching, antique silver speed lace loops and cushioning in all the right places we dare say you could hit the hills whilst wearing the Oakledge Hiker Low with no issues. But just like our beloved Mephistos we’d rather keep these walking shoes for exploring more suede friendly terrain away from all those nasty bogs and big puddles where the only thing to look out for is the odd spilled pint of Guinnes. Slainte!
