Alife Everybody Mid Parachute Polka Dot Pack




As part of the Alife Summer 2009 footwear collection, the Everybody Mid comes in a nylon version with Polka Dot accents. By now the use of nylon and polka dots on sneakers is not a new concept, nevertheless we like the outcome of the pack a lot. The more subtle use of the polka dots on the mid-sole and the laces looks nice and the colorways in the pack are strong as well - black, purple and grey.
