Description
THE BRAND
CQP, Conversations & Quintessential Products was founded in 2013 out of a passion for great design and an uncompromising commitment to quality. Each CQP sneaker is the result of deliberate material sourcing and artisanal craftsmanship, bringing together the finest European suppliers to create footwear built to last.
DETAILS
The Stride is CQP’s contemporary take on the classic running shoe — refined, elevated and built for the long run. Now in its second iteration, the silhouette has been revamped with a new elevated sole for improved stability and comfort, while staying true to the understated, design-led aesthetic that defines the CQP universe.
Handcrafted in Portugal using premium suedes from Italy and mesh from Spain, the Stride Dark Brown is a study in considered construction. The tonal colour palette and mix of suede and nylon mesh panels give the shoe a rich, versatile character that works equally well dressed up or down. Inside, a micro fibre lining and multi-layer cushioning system — comprising a leather shank board, metal shank and arch support — ensure lasting comfort from the first wear.
The Stride arrives with one extra set of laces and a CQP dust bag, making it an equally compelling choice as a luxury sneaker gift.
