Karhu Mestari Run LS

Karhu Mestari Run LS
The Mestari Run LS is well made: refined proportions, cleaner paneling, subtler branding, a campaign shot in Japan, on sale since July 17. It is also the performance shoe with the performance taken out. Karhu turns 110 this year, and its better object of the summer was the Fusion 2.0 OG, a straight tribute to the 1996 original. Come back when the archive team gets the next release.
