Hanwag’s new shoe is a sight for sore eyes

Normally a sentence with the words ‘grit’ and ‘eye’ in makes for bad news but fortunately this time around it spells out something really rather marvellous. I say this because legendary German outdoor footwear brand Hanwag have collaborated with Tokyo based eye_C magazine to conjure up a limited edition version of their Gritstone II GTX hiking shoe. Kitted out in premium suede with stitched dual branding and a Vibram Ultragrip II Kronplatz sole, these waterproof beauties also feature silver D ring eyelets for the ultimate in old school walking shoes vibes. Made entirely in Europe and ideal for eating up the sidewalks of Shibuya, the Gritstone II eye_C are a class act and without a doubt the type of shoe that will have both geography teachers and gorpcorpers gushing about their orthopaedic charms in equal amounts.
