Joe Freshgoods x Blackstock & Weber Loafer “Candy Apple” Design
Joseph Robinson, the Chicago designer behind Joe Freshgoods, is best known for his New Balance collaborations. This loafer gives his work a different look.
The upper is red Italian patent leather. The toe carries a checkerboard design, with a few of the squares appearing in a paler tone.
A penny strap runs across the top of the loafer. The lining inside is pink, which contrasts with the red patent finish. A thick Vibram lug sole sits underfoot.
Is This Loafer the Joe Freshgoods 2027 Collaboration?
That is unclear. Earlier this year, Joseph Robinson hinted at a new footwear collaboration set for 2027. Timberland has come up in speculation, but no partner has been confirmed.
