There was a time not all that long ago when everything was made by hand. No assembly lines, no mass production, no computer determining where things go and when it looks just right. Fortunately, there are a few companies still doing things the old-fashioned way – companies like Bugatti and Alden. But that handmade perfection comes at a price. Outlier Fiet Supermarine Sneakers are no different. With an upper that uses only two materials (water resistant Supermarine cotton and breathable French calf leather) and two seams (one to attach the tongue and one to close the rear) – along with a Vibram sole – they are as understated as they are good looking. The only thing you have to think about is whether you want your wearable Veyrons in flat black or olive.
