when you love shoes and the environment very\u00a0much<\/h4>\n

Given the love Sperry and Kerby Rosanes have for all oceans of the world, they released an eponymous shoe collection that would celebrate their passion. Not just in an artistic way, where we can expect Kerby\u2019s colorful artwork embossed on Sperry<\/a>\u2019s iconic sneakers but also their attempts at saving mother earth by creating footwear with recycled materials. Collaborations with a good cause are hard to come by. If we could kill two birds with one stone, why not?<\/p>\n

A Closer Look At The\u00a0Design<\/strong><\/h3>\n

With Sperry being the creator of the world\u2019s first-ever boat shoes, just the name alone is sufficient to ring bells. Now with Kerby joining hands, their brainchild will undoubtedly be on a whole new level. His designs are characterized by whimsical lines, patterns, and doodle creatures. When combined, they form the most awe-inspiring compositions. And lucky for us, we\u2019re in for a treat where we get to see two of Kerby\u2019s doodles aptly named Dystopia and Utopia splayed across the collection.<\/p>\n

Dystopia<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kerby is not afraid to get real when it comes to climate change, and his choice of getting his message across is by depicting the harsh reality of our environment. Using his deft hands, he impeccably portrays sea pollution through plastic bottles anchored on sea beds, tires tangled in between coral reefs, and rubbish waste floating around the sea. Unmistakably a somber sight, which was further amplified by the use of monochrome hues.<\/p>\n

Utopia<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are usually two endings to a story, which could go either way based on one\u2019s decision. Well, Utopia\u2019s that other possibility, the positive aspiration we all strive to achieve. Kerby paints the sea in vibrant colors to remind the public of the ocean\u2019s original vanity before pollution. And unlike Dystopia where litter galore, Utopia\u2019s a much more liveable home for all the oceanic creatures.<\/p>\n

The Sperry x Kerby Rosanes range will be giving four different models a facelift with Kerby designs. While the kicks differ slightly in exterior, all boast the following features:<\/p>\n
