Scandinavian urban outerwear and lifestyle brand RAINS has again teamed up with 3D-printed footwear innovator Zellerfeld for their second collaboration. Known for its forward-thinking designs and commitment to sustainability, RAINS has become a staple in urban fashion, while Zellerfeld has produced groundbreaking and cutting-edge 3D-printing technology. Now, a new mule design has come forward from the duo.
The RAINS x Zellerfeld Mule is a testament to the power of innovation in footwear design. Inspired by RAINS' signature puffer jackets and exaggerated zippers, this season’s iteration showcases a sculptural shape that is both futuristic and functional. Leveraging Zellerfeld’s TextureMap technology, the mule features multiple texture finishes across various sections of the silhouette, creating a visually striking and incredibly progressive design. Available in three distinct colorways—Orange, Oat, and Black—the RAINS x Zellerfeld Mule is printed-to-order, ensuring a custom fit for each wearer.
Crafted from TPU, the mule boasts quick-drying, washable, and odor-resistant properties, making it a low-maintenance yet high-performance footwear option. These features not only enhance the longevity of the mule but also align with RAINS and Zellerfeld’s commitment to creating sustainable, durable products that minimize environmental impact. Each pair is a one-of-a-kind creation, showcasing the seamless integration of RAINS' design ethos with Zellerfeld’s advanced 3D printing capabilities.
The RAINS x Zellerfeld Mule will release on August 14, 2024, exclusively via rains.com. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $229. Download the Sole Retriever mobile app to stay updated on the latest releases, raffles, news, and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
