about that adio x unkl brand unipo & drayton sl shoes

UNKL Brand has partnered with Adio Footwear for a limited release of 1,000 pairs of UNKL-designed Adio Limited Projects Drayton SL shoes - which is packaged with an Adio + UNKL UniPo figure, rendered in a classy black base with gold design highlights, to match the swirls of the Adio-shoe.

while an added bonus for sneaker-heads, UniPo-fans are also able to procure the singular UniPo (without the shoes) online here for only US$8-per = *sweet*

The skateboarding-talent range of the UNKL family is varied – ranging from experience kick-flippers to those of us who can’t stand for even a second on a skateboard without falling on our asses.

Here’s what Derek Welch (half of the UNKL creative team) has to say about it: “We teamed up with Adio because we feel like Adio is to skateboarding as UNKL is to the world of designer vinyl. Both companies are about creating product they believe in. At UNKL we don’t want to be all things to all people—but with Adio we can be a few more things to a few more people in a way that goes beyond what we’ve done previously”
