In the modern era, fitness and fashion are no longer mutually exclusive.
In fact, they oftentimes go hand and hand like peanut butter and jelly—and this SCHUTZ X Bala collab is no exception.
SCHUTZ, everybody’s favorite “it-girl” shoe brand, and Bala, the fashionable fitness equipment line, have teamed up to create a limited-edition footwear collection.
The collection features SCHUTZ’s iconic styles, the Maryana Boot ($238) and the Keefa High Nappa Leather Sandal ($158), in the five core Bala colorways– Sand, Blush, Sage, Sea, and Heather.
According to the release, the collab was created to “empower women to feel and look good, in a playful sense of self-expression.”
Since debuting in 1995, SCHUTZ has become the go-to for sophisticated footwear with double-take-worthy details.
Previous campaign faces include Elsa Hosk, Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, and Irina Shayk, all women who embody the brand’s spirit and essence.
SCHUTZ consists of a curated collection of elevated and empowering styles with a focus on feminine silhouettes, quality materials, and bold details designed for the fashion-forward individual.
“Here at SCHUTZ, we create bold, fun, and beautiful shoes that fit any lifestyle. We are excited to partner with Bala, whose mission and aesthetic align with our own. Our current and potential customers will love this colorful and fun collaboration.” – Anna Garzon, Executive Director of SCHUTZ.
Cofounded in 2018, Bala’s is rooted in the idea that form and function should exist. As a brand, their goal is to “take the work out of working out, to empower everyone to move through creativity and self-expression.”
“Bala has always blended fashion with fitness so what better collaboration than a fashion shoe brand? We are beyond excited to partner with Schutz, a like-minded brand. Their creativity is inspirational and their products are top-notch. We wanted to bring the colorful world of Bala to life and inspire women to live a playful life full of color.” - Natalie Holloway, co-founder of Bala.
The limited-edition collection is available for purchase at SCHUTZ stores and online at schutz-shoes.com.
