We are very excited to announce a brand new collaboration with Yogi, certified masters of the laidback moccasin, now available for AW23.
Featuring 5 shoes, two versions of Yogi’s chunky, ranger-style Finn moc, as well as a low-top, slip-on rework of their classic Hitch shoe, it’s a collection built on shared ideas about style, comfort and craft, with an undercurrent of playful experimentation.
Our co-founder David Keyte, a long-standing admirer of Yogi, explains,
“I have a genuine love of Yogi. They really do make something that can provide the comfort of a sneaker whilst fulfilling the need for a proper shoe. That's easier said than done, but Yogi always manages to pull it off.”
These shoes are designed with the latest Universal Works collection in mind, intentionally echoing the cinematic mood set by our "Far from Memphis" collection. "Intermission," a short film crafted to celebrate this collaboration, captures the cinematic vibe and evokes those moments in life when you believe no one is watching—an interlude between the action that invites playful exploration and discovery.
With a shared love of craft, utility, and laid back style, Universal Works and Yogi are a natural fit. The results of this partnership embody all the comfort, quality, and meticulous attention to detail one would anticipate from such a pairing, infused with a dash of playful rock 'n' roll and a cinematic twist.
