Available in clean and studded versions, both rooted in NEEDLES’ signature aesthetic.
A Familiar Silhouette, Reworked
The NEEDLES x PPACO collaboration offers a refreshed take on the Lux-2 slider, keeping its minimal, molded construction intact while introducing subtle design updates. The upper stays sleek and streamlined, with the addition of NEEDLES’ butterfly logo across the strap, giving the silhouette a clear identity without overcomplicating it. Arriving in purple and black, the color options reflect both brands’ sensibilities—one more expressive, the other easy to wear daily.
Two Versions, Two Attitudes
The release is split between a standard edition and a studded version. The standard pair keeps things simple, focusing on the clean lines and smooth finish of the Lux-2. The studded option adds metallic details across the strap, bringing a bit more edge and texture to the design while still staying true to the original shape. It’s a small change that shifts the overall feel without losing the core look.
Built for Everyday Comfort
Both versions sit on contoured soles designed for comfort, with a tonal finish that keeps everything cohesive from top to bottom. The footbed features subtle branding, and the overall construction stays lightweight and easy to wear. Set to release on April 4 via NEPENTHES, the collaboration keeps things straightforward while letting the small details do the work.
