Clarks Australia has welcomed the launch of the new Aimé Leon Dore collaboration collection, which reimagines the Originals shoe design, the Wallabee.
Paying homage to the hip-hop history of the Wallabee shoe, rapper Nas is fronting the campaign, demonstrating that the Wallabee is still a staple in hip-hop culture.
Each of the shoes is handmade in Portugal from responsibly sourced Italian wool and finished with European leather bindings.
Clarks Australia marketing manager Jamie Kouktzelas said that the shoe has been integral to the Clarks heritage.
"The iconic Wallabee design has been a big part of the Clarks family for over 60 years.
"Loved by free thinkers and counter-culture icons alike, we’re so excited to be bringing this new release to Australia, with limited pairs available in market from this week.
"The new Aimè Leon Dore release pays homage to the Wallabee’s deep roots in hip-hop history.
"Having collaborated with WuTang and other hip-hop legends in the past, from one icon to another, we’re thrilled to have Nas continue the brands' heritage in this space, featuring in the new Wallabee campaign," she said.
The new range is now available for purchase on the Clarks Australia official website, in green, orange, tan and black, priced at $329.95 a pair.
