Bon Iver x Keep Ramos Shoe


Indie music sensation Bon Iver (the stage name for singer/songwriter Justin Vernon) doesn’t seem like the first place one would expect to find a sneaker collaboration, but Los Angeles-based Keep footwear has made it a reality. The partnership was a natural one, as both Keep and Vernon share a common love for both music (of course) and animals — with a portion of the proceeds from sales of the shoe going to the Best Friends Animal Society. The limited edition collaboration shoe follows Keep’s classic Ramos silhouette, with a canvas upper, gum rubber sole, and a fishbone graphic across the toe. While the shoes aren’t expected to ship until October, pre-ordering starts from the Keep web shop on June 18, and extends until July 1.
