Ewing Athletics has today announced a special edition collab with "the world's best pickle," Grillo's Pickles.
Grillo's Pickles founder, Travis Grillo, started selling two spears for $1 out of a hand-built wooden pickle cart on the streets of Boston 10 years ago (after getting denied a job at Nike). Now, he and his brand have come full circle by releasing the first ever pickle sneaker coined “The Pickle.”

Utilizing the Ewing Sport Lite silhouette, "The Pickle" is built on a green suede, representing the fresh dill found in each jar, while a green leather serves as a nod to the crisp, crunchy cucumbers that are used to make the renowned pickles. White laces, inspired by the fresh California garlic, wood cart detailing, clear soles and Pickle Man logos on the heel cap off the collab.
