Since its inception in 2016, Myrqvist has redefined the Swedish footwear landscape by offering luxurious shoes at accessible prices. Their unwavering dedication to exceptional craftsmanship, Scandinavian design, and meticulous attention to detail has catapulted them to the forefront of the industry, earning the title of Sweden’s fastest-growing footwear brand in 2020. Myrqvist’s diverse collection seamlessly blends style and comfort, providing the perfect fit for any occasion.
Needless to say, we were excited when we learned about Myrqvist's announcement that they will unveils their latest addition to their sneaker lineup: Alnö. This new style marks a significant milestone for Myrqvist as their first-ever sneaker featuring an elastic closure, seamlessly blending fashion with functionality.
Despite its sturdiness, Alnö stands out with its easy slip-on fit, complemented by tonal elastics that form the signature M over the tongue, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, Alnö embodies Myrqvist’s commitment to delivering premium footwear without the premium price tag.
Alnö will be available in three distinct styles, each designed to cater to diverse tastes and preferences: a sleek Midnight Blue Suede with a tone-on-tone sole, a sophisticated Dark Taupe Suede with a slightly darker sole, and Myrqvist's first-ever Nubuck sneaker in Tumbled Beige, finished with a contrasting white sole. The soft suede and nubuck uppers ensure supreme comfort, while the handmade craftsmanship in Portugal reflects Myrqvist's dedication to quality.
Sebastian Öhrn, Myrqvist’s CEO and Founder, shares his thoughts on this exciting addition: Alnö is a testament to the time we are living in. While we will always stay true to our roots, we will never stop innovating footwear for the modern man. Since the pandemic, sneakers have become a staple in everyone's wardrobe, and we believe Alnö will be the perfect addition to our lineup.
Alnö joins Myrqvist’s diverse range of footwear options, which includes Oxfords, loafers, sneakers, and more. All of these share the brand’s dedication to timeless design and top-tier craftsmanship. Available for purchase on Myrqvist.com and at their flagship store on Jakobsbergsgatan 17 in Stockholm, Alnö was launched in May.
