FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
JULY 2021 — John Fluevog Shoes
John Fluevog and Dutch designer Bas Kosters are launching a special shoe collection this July! A ‘match made in heaven’ for both parties, both are colourful and outspoken designers who have been recognized for fearlessness and innovation in their respective industries.
Launching July 7, 2021 The Fluevog x Bas Kosters collection includes a version of John’s iconic Original Munster as well as a brand new sneaker design, The LoPro Noord, both crafted from a custom printed leather featuring Bas’ signature Teewee figure.
John’s connection with Lady Miss Kier is what first caused Bas Kosters to dive further into Fluevog: “When I was thirteen, the mega-hit ‘Groove is the heart’ by Deee-lite entered the charts. I fell in love immediately. Their cheerful and playful esthetic was an important reason for me to study fashion. Lady Miss Kier has since remained one of my idols. Collaborating with Fluevog on this collection of shoes was truly a dream come true.”
John Fluevog quickly saw a connection with Bas and his work. “Doing a project with Bas was an easy decision. His work is colourful and we both have the same philosophy, that sometimes you have to design things that make the world a better place, that you believe need to exist. So much good work has gone into this project, we can’t wait to release it to the world!”
The Fluevog x Bas Kosters collection will be available in limited quantities in Canada, the USA, the Netherlands and Australia with The Munster retailing for
CAD$479 / US$439 / 369€ / AUD$599 and The Noord for CAD$379 / US$349 / 249€ / AUD$529.
