The one and only John Geiger is back. The designer returns with a new footwear collaboration, joining forces with premium tequila label Patrón. The duo has aligned in the past for apparel, but now they have created something eye-catching to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. Geiger recently opened up about working with Patrón. He stated: “I’m consistently inspired and impressed by Patrón. I loved working with them last year on our streetwear collection, and this is another collaboration truly driven by passion.”
Geiger went on to add, “It was only fitting to go bigger and better for Cinco de Mayo with an epic sneaker drop that takes the designs we created with them last year to the next level. I was really inspired by the green that you’ll see in the leather detailing, evocative of the heart of Patrón, the agave piñas from the fields in Jalisco, Mexico.”
The pair comes rocking a colorway inspired by the Patrón Silver tequila bottle. The upper boasts a mix of sail white and lime green pebbled leather uppers. Geiger’s signature “g” logo adorns the sides. At the same time, Patrón’s Bee motif is sketched on the heel tab. The sneaker is finished off with an inner lining that is cork brown and crisp white soles to keep you grounded. Clean, unique, and eye-catching, this collaborative design is sure to add some style for Spring and Summer.
Take a closer look at the Patrón x John Geiger GF-01 sneakers in the images. Look for the sneakers to drop on May 5th on John Geiger’s website. In the meantime, keep it locked with The Culture Curators for outstanding footwear and cool collaborations coming very soon.
