To color the “grayest” spring we have ever lived, there’s the Made in Italy sneaker by D.A.T.E. . The model is called FUGA and it’s present in the new spring summer 2020 collection in three new bright colors: platinum, sky, silver.

If we say D.A.T.E. we say craftsmanship, passion, modernity and dynamism even if in reality this name is the simple acronym of the four young founders. They met in London in 2005 and their names are Damiano, Alessandro, Tommaso and Emiliano. They decided to make their own line of sneakers, a few pieces that were exhibited in a small space at the Pitti Immagine Uomo fair in Florence in 2006. Thanks to his originality, the first D.A.T.E. sneaker conquered all the public and within a few years they boast collaborations of the caliber of Chiara Ferragni.
The attachment and the gratitude for their birthplace have allowed the Florentine company to create a total Made in Italy brand while maintaining its long tradition in the field of leather goods, design and special fabrics. Given this deep bond, at this moment more than ever D.A.T.E. wants to support its territory, coloring it also with hope: they will donate a part of the new Spring Summer 2020 collection takings to the Careggi University Hospital (Florence) for the coronavirus emercency.
The streetwear approach coexists with the aesthetics, the design and the increasing attention to be eco-friendly, which makes these sneakers even more original. The new multicolor FUGA, with shiny and glitter leather with nubuck inserts, have a 2.5 cm raised inner sole for better comfort and the white rubber outer sole of 2-5 cm high. The model wears the right shape and features the round toe, the classic lace-up closure and the logo on the shoe tongue.

The SS20 collection is available in the official e-commerce of the brand, ready to color your daily life.
