A.S.98

Although A.S.98 has been around since the late 1970s, it has undergone something of a reincarnation in the last few years. Originally, A.S.98 was focussed purely on the creation of outstanding footwear fit to rival brands like Adidas. It now adds knitwear, handbags and accessories to its range, meaning it can compete with brand leaders like Diesel. However, it’s its new innovation in the shoe world that has set tongues wagging.

Personalising your footwear

The A.S.98 online shop states that they make shoes “for independent people defined only by the path they choose.” This philosophy has seen the development of a new idea. Soft wire has been worked into bootlegs and bags. Previously, the materials used in A.S.98 shoes meant that the wire reverted back to its original shape. However, this new design allows the wire to be modelled, giving you the opportunity to hand-shape items to your exact requirements, for either practical or fashion purposes – and it’ll stay in the position you choose.

It’s all in the details

However, it’s not just about creating your own look. The A.S.98 trademarks that have seen them rivalling other footwear giants, such as Jack & Jones, are to be found in the details. Straps and buckles, combined with washed and tumbled Italian leathers, intricate cuts and sumptuous inner linings merge together to create the ultimate footwear experience. Each shoe is hand-finished and radiates understated cool in any situation. The A.S.98 online shop offers shoes and accessories for customers “who have both feet on the ground and who set themselves apart in life.”
