KARHU RUSKA PACK

 In Finland, ruska is a unique word that is used to describe the time of year when the aspen, mountain ash, and birch leaves begin to turn brilliant shades of gold, burgundy, and caramel.

Lifestyle, Release

The farther north you travel towards Lapland, the more intense the changing colours of leaves become to not only the trees, but also the surrounding bushes, vines and berries. Karhu invites you to celebrate the start of the autumn season with the “Ruska” pack. The Ruska collection consists of two popular styles in four limited colour ways. The two Aria options are designed with a monosock booty construction for a comfortable fit.

The suede panels at the heel, midfoot and toe create seasonal colour blocking reminiscent of nature’s hues. The selected colour gradient represents the transitional change that takes place with the onset of autumn. 

The second silhouette in the release features the Synchron Classic in two ruska inspired options. Both colourways come with soft suede throughout the upper with hits of multi-coloured water repellent nylon mesh at the toe, midfoot and heel.

The peak season of ruska’s deep and soft tones might only last for two weeks, but with the popularity of photographers traveling to capture Finland’s wilderness, communities far and wide are able to experience this farewell to summer. This September, Karhu welcomes you to partake in the sensational colours found in the “Ruska” Pack.
