THE KARHU X KNIRPS “SH*TTY WEATHER” PACK

They say a little rain never hurt anyone, but every sneakerhead knows that a bout of sh*tty weather can ruin even the best outfit. Just a few puddles make all the difference between wearing the latest release from KARHU or your beat up, old sneakers. Lucky for you, KARHU and Knirps have teamed up to solve this issue and keep your feet dry AND stylish just in time for winter. Introducing the KARHU x Knirps Fusion 2.0 “Sh*tty Weather” Pack.

8th December Lifestyle, Release

When Hans Haupt decided in 1928 that he no longer wanted to carry his walking stick and a long umbrella, he came up with the idea for a super small, foldable version that could be stashed away in a pocket once the weather cleared.

Knirps was born, and with it came a revolution to the umbrella industry. Knirps, or “little guy” in German, is now one of the world’s leading manufacturers of innovative and quality umbrellas.

With their recent collaboration, KARHU and Knirps vow that they won’t ever leave you (or your sneakers) out in the rain. Launching this fall, the “Sh*tty Weather” pack features two distinct colourways of KARHU’s iconic Fusion 2.0.

Both colourways utilize a rain repellent mesh suitable for almost any sh*tty weather. To complete the outfit, the accompanying Knirps US.050 Ultra Light Slim umbrella is co-branded and so small that it fits in your jacket pocket OR in a sneaker box. Coincidence? We don’t think so.

Attention to detail appears throughout the two Fusion 2.0s - dual branding can be found on the special edition footbed and box. An embossed archival Karhu bear image holding an umbrella, is embossed on the lateral side of the heel.

Both colorways of the Karhu Shitty Weather Pack come with a limited edition Knirps umbrella and are sold exclusively through German sneaker boutiques (complete list, see below) and on www.karhu.com.

The Fusion 2.0 is a tribute to the original 1996 model of the same name, once the top shoe in the Karhu collection. In collaboration with the original designer, Karhu has reinterpreted the Fusion to bring back this iconic design in a sneaker for today- the Fusion 2.0.
