The KARHU Mestari Control Dress Blue / Bright White is our latest model to feature a robust, slip-resistant outsole, making it the perfect sneaker for outside outings.

The KARHU Mestari Control Dress Blue / Bright White is designed for everyday wear during both the summer and winter season. This silhouette with modern touches and thoughtful construction, is built to ensure comfort and stability on any surface. It is a unisex sneaker, therefore, available as men sneakers and women sneakers.
