Introducing HU-GO1ST, HUGO's freshest sneaker silhouette

METZINGEN, MARCH 20, 2023

HUGO encourages you to take a bold step forward with its latest sneaker drop, the HU-GO1ST. Designed for those who like their footwear to make a statement, the new sneakers feature fresh pops of HUGO red, and they come in a range of bold colorways to elevate any look.

Aligning with HUGO’s constant championing of self-expression and individuality, the HU-GO1ST sneakers are defined by a curved, chunky profile that immediately turns heads. Their lacing system features hiking-inspired reflective accents – offering a bold look from day to night – along with triangular eyelets to allow for easy adjustment. The trekking inspiration carries over to the sneakers’ extended outsoles, which feature raised triangular patterns of different sizes to ensure a better grip. 

The design is completed on a bold note with a branded loop on the heel counters. Comfortable materials throughout, including a breathable lining, make the HU-GO1ST sneakers feel effortless to wear, whatever the day brings.

The HU-GO1ST launch will be accompanied by a social media-focused activation that will encourage fans to join HUGO on a sneaker hunt that celebrates standing out rather than blending in. Over on Snapchat, users will be able to virtually try on the new sneakers via a dedicated filter. In addition, HUGO stores worldwide – from London to Stockholm to Dubai – will showcase the HU-GO1ST sneakers in special window displays.
