Interactive session preview
One sneaker. Two colourways.
Switch between two released SPUNGE Osmosis colourways. See how moving the contrast from the upper to the sole changes where your eye goes.
Let the shape lead.
Muted tones keep the upper quiet. Your eye goes to the cut-outs in the sculpted sole.
Both colourways are real releases, photographed from different angles. The comparison and commentary were written for this demo.
