CHAIN LINK VIEW is the focal point of the collection. Inspired by Marcus’ youth growing up ON THE SOUTHSIDE OF Chicago. He understood the juxtaposition of the poetic and rugged city of big shoulders. The cage-like structure surrounding the Gallow was inspired by the view from the stands, as one looks through the chain-link fence to watch little league BASEBALL.
Marcus freshman collection offers materials such as waxed calfskin nappa, burnished calf suede, military-grade washed nylon, nylon webbing, waxed cotton lace, 5-part custom emboss mold, copper debossed tongue logo, and oil debossed heel logo.
Utilitarian details such as Norwegian double-stitch welt. Lightweight, rubber outsole. Flat, high contact bottom increases traction. Natural motion grooves increase flexibility. Deep-contoured last increases support. Specially constructed padded bootie for ankle and arch support. Odor-resistant leather lining and footbed. Cushioned insole.
