Leave it to Outlier to create even more dashingly desirable bicycling apparel that's outside of my meager price range. The princes of high fashioned, high priced cycle-centric clothing hit yet another seemingly pitch perfect note with their entry into the ever-competitive world of feet covers by collaborating with independent shoemaker, Feit. And the results are a simple, elegant and - quite frankly - breathless shoe.
The Supermarine looks to be a slimmed-down version of Feit's Superclean Low 1, minus the welt stitching. The silhouette of the Supermarine is spartan, yet striking; in this case less appears to be more. This "handmade" sneaker comes in two colorways (Flat Black and Olive), features a reflective strip on the heel and is made from breathable water resistant materials. They come housed in an almost logo-free box paired with a black satchel bag akin to the kind Clae used to provide with their shoes.
This being Outlier, these puppies, of course, aren't cheap. A mere $260 is the price you'll have to pay if you want these elegant sneakers cradling your toes. $pendy? Oh, no doubt. But just look at these shoes. I mean, who really needs things like food and shelter, anyway?
Now, if only there were a way for me to review these shoes and give you, the reader, a performance assessment of them. Hmm....
