With its bold side panel ‘H’, the HUF Choice is the brand’s lowtop flagship.  A shorter counterpart to the Hupper, Hufnagel’s choice just made a splash in collaboration with Diamond Supply Co. on a ‘Tiffany’ colorway.  Today we see a much darker shade of teal employed not as an accent but as most of the design, as a new pair emerges in suede and canvas plus a Brick brownish-red leather heel.  Click through for some more angles, then grab yours straight from HUF.

Clad in a Mexican-blanket style upper, the clean silhouette is perhaps not as immediately recognizable as the little brother to the Kobe 8 relative to the LeBron X combo, but nevertheless offers some important design elements integrated. The shoe will be available starting June 1 at select NSW dealers.
