In 1996 Karhu Fusion represented the top running shoe in the collection of the Finnish brand; today the 2.0 version treads the same footsteps of its predecessor.

After almost 20 years (a first revival was initially distributed in 2015), Karhu considered that it was time to honor the 1996 Fusion launching this version with a real "OG" call: the colorway was inspired by the OG; in particular, the detail that links this Fusion 2.0 to the OG is the presence of the "KARHU" writing on the external area of ​​the shoe, placed on a piece of leather that overlaps the "M" logo.

Another precious feature of the release is of a cloth for sports use created in collaboration with Finlayson, a Finnish company leader in the home textile market since 1820, and distributed within the box: the Coronna pattern, designed by Aini Vaari in 1958, shows practical, simple and geometric motifs typical of late 50s.

The Karhu Fusion 2.0 “OG” is available online and in-store.
