Camila Cabello Unveils Edgy Limited-Edition Sneaker Collab With Japanese Brand Grounds
More from Footwear News
Camila Cabello has linked with Japanese brand Grounds to deliver her own take on their popular Moopie silhouette.
Drawing inspiration from her latest album, “C,Xoxo,” as well as her Miami roots, the bold sneaker’s “Blue Hour” colorway pays homage to the coastal city’s blue sky and ocean. Cabello’s limited-edition version of the brand’s signature statement shoe, the “Moopie,” features a white mesh upper with gray overlays, light blue piping, blue pull tabs, and playful silver bubble rubber soles.
Taking to Instagram to debut the collaboration, the “Havana” hitmaker shared a slideshow of herself modeling the daring lace-up sneakers in bed. “@grounds.official and I have collaborated to make our own blue hour shoe inspired by c,xoxo and the blue colors of the Miami post-sunset sky,” she captioned the post. “I wore Grounds so much while writing this album and festival rehearsals, they’re unique and comfy and they make me taller hehe.”
The Cuban-born singer-songwriter models a white graphic cropped tee with turquoise sleeves and coordinating gym shorts in campaign images for the collaboration. The casual sporty outfit complemented the unique shoes effortlessly.
The Tokyo label created by Mikio Sakabe is best known for its flamboyant footwear designs with the “Moopie” collection defined by its exaggerated bubble outsoles. The head-turning style comes in versions with and without laces, as well as a Mary Jane-inspired option. The brand was founded in 2018 and originally named Giddy Up before rebranding.
The Grammy-nominated artist’s love of bold shoes translates to her red carpet style. She regularly wears styles like sparkly pumps and sky-high platform heels when getting dressed up. Recently, she has stepped out in sheer stilettos, patent leather Timberland booties, and Simone Rocha’s avant-garde pleated ballet flat pumps set on a clear sculpted heel.
Retailing at $460, you can pre-order the Moopie x Camila Cabello ‘Blue Hour’ now through Dec. 27 on grounds.com.
