Japanese Designer Sneakers 'Kasumi'

The Kasumi sneakers textured in pastel tweed and mint

The Kasumi is the most texturally adventurous low-top in the range. White panels meet frayed, boucle-like tweed in soft pastel blue and green, the materials cut into rippling, wavy edges that give the upper a deconstructed, almost hand-finished look. A mint-green and beige sole grounds the whole playful build.

It arrives in three colorways, so the pictured shade is just one of the choices on offer.

The mix of surfaces is the draw: smooth white against fuzzy, frayed pastel tweed, the wavy seams adding movement across the side. The two-tone sole — warm beige below a band of mint green — picks up the cool tones above, tying the soft, dreamy palette together. The wavy seams ripple right around the shoe, so no two angles look quite the same.

These are everyday low-tops with a thick, cushioned sole for comfort and a little lift. The lace-up closure and unisex cut keep them versatile, though the textured, pastel build makes them more of a statement piece than a basic.

The soft colors and tactile materials read creative and design-forward, a sneaker for someone who wants their shoes noticed. They pair best with simple, pared-back outfits that let the texture and color do the talking.

Built on a thick cushioned sole with a comfortable everyday fit, they're a unisex low-top for anyone drawn to soft pastels and rich texture. The Kasumi for fans of deconstructed, tweed-trimmed design.

There's a hand-finished, almost crafted quality to the whole shoe that makes it feel one of a kind. It rewards a closer look the way few sneakers do, the frayed tweed and wavy seams revealing more detail the longer you study them, and it turns an otherwise simple outfit into something with real talking-point character. Soft in palette yet rich in texture, it's a clear statement piece rather than a basic.
