NN.07 marked the launch of its collaboration with Clarks Originals, “Contrast in Conversation,” with an evening that brought together friends of the brand, creatives, and press in New York.

Notable attendees included David Banda, Jake Woolf, Matthew Faust, Layton Lamell, Josh Peskowitz, Bruce Pask, Jian DeLeon, Tyler Lain, Ryan Clark, and Harry Toohey.

The evening began with a family-style sit-down dinner, followed by a classic NN.07 cocktail party. Freeman Alley was tagged with a custom NN.07 mural celebrating the brand’s ethos, complemented by an NN.07 graffiti board inside the venue where guests left their mark on the night.

The collaboration reimagines two legendary Clarks Originals silhouettes: the Wallabee and the Desert Boot. Each style stays true to the character of its original design while introducing distinctive NN.07 details that add a touch of edge to the classic.

The NN.07 Desert Boot is recreated with the silhouette’s signature clean lines and subtle heel in premium full-grain cowhide leather, finished with a distinctive NN.07-designed cross-foot buckle strap. The NN.07 Wallabee reinterprets the instantly recognizable silhouette in premium full-grain cowhide leather, finished with silver lacing tips and bespoke NN.07 hangtags.

Both styles were worn by guests throughout the evening, bringing the collection to life in the city where the collaboration launched.
