The Vision
Stevens shares his vision for the Rapido High-Top Sneaker collection, stating, “We have done the minimalist sneaker thing a bunch – the Rapido’s are not minimalist. They are bold and they are playful, and they are in-your-face. You won’t find other sneakers that are putting these types of textiles onto a silhouette like this. I love sneakers, and I wanted something that sneakerheads would love too. I think it’s right in line with what we do – we take the basics and apply unique materials and finishes to them. These sneakers are no different. We took a silhouette that feels familiar and put our own spin on things. This is really our first stab at trying to be relevant in the overall sneaker culture.”
