(FILA North America) - FILA kicks off 2019 with a special-edition footwear style designed in collaboration with FAED, the DJ duo of Five and Eric DLux, who are Sin City favorites. Beginning on January 25, fans will have a chance to win the FILA Targa x FAED footwear, through the FindZen App.
The FILA Targa x FAED adds a twist to a premium design, with dual branding throughout, including a clever fusion of “FILA” and “FAED.” For this collaboration, each shoe boasts its own personality through customization of the FILA “F” with a different color. One shoe features blue and the other includes red, a nod to the "left and right" in audio.
"We fell in love with the FILA Targa silhouette the moment we saw it and we knew right away it was the shoe we wanted to collaborate on,” said Eric DLux. “We went with a clean off-white leather and a gum bottom sole that could easily work with any outfit, perfect for our traveling DJ, carry-on lifestyle.”
The limited-edition FILA Targa x FAED silhouette is made with genuine Italian leathers. The tongue is embellished with a gold, embroidered FAED skull logo, which represents half faces of the duo. Additional design elements include perforation on the toe box, FILA branding on the quarter, and a gum bottom.
