Some collaborations are made for sunny days. KARHU and KNIRPS have other plans. Following their first Sh*try Weather Pack in 2023, the two brands are reuniting for a second instalment, aptly titled No Break in the Clouds. With the forecast showing little sign of improvement, the partnership is back with updated materials, new colourways and the same focus on making unpredictable weather a little easier to deal with.
The latest release builds on the shared idea behind the original collaboration: creating everyday essentials that remain useful when conditions turn against you. This time, KARHU brings new colour treatments to its Fusion 2.0 silhouette, while KNIRPS returns with a co-branded umbrella designed to complement the sneakers. It is a straightforward continuation of the first project, with both brands leaning into the practical side of their respective expertise.
No Break in the Clouds
The new pack keeps the Fusion 2.0 at the heart of the collaboration. Known for its running heritage and distinctive layered construction, the silhouette provdes a familiar foundation for the latest colourways. Updated materials give the sneaker a seasonal identity, while the overall concept remains rooted in the realities of dressing for wet and unpredictable conditions.
The brands don’t see bad weather as something to avoid tho, KARHU and KNIRPS approach it as part of everyday life. The collection continues the original project’s emphasis on resilience and functionality, bringing together footwear and an accessory designed to work alongside it.
The collaboration also brings back one of its most recognisable details: the KARHU bear sheltering beneath an umbrella. Reimagined for the second instalment, the illustration returns as a visual link between the two releases, reinforcing the playful identity established by the 2023 pack.
A Pocket-Sized Essential From KNIRPS
The accompanying umbrella receives a fresh co-branded design, developed go complement the new Fusion 2.0 colourways. As with the previous release, its compact construction allows it to fit inside a jacket pocket, making it an easy addition to an outfit.
Titled No Break in the Clouds, the second KARHU x KNIRPS Sh*tty Weather Pack releases on Friday 6 November 2026. The Fusion 2.0 colourways and accompanying umbrella will be available through KARHU.com, the brand’s concept stores in Helsinki, Tokyo, Turin and Cuneo, as well as selected retailers worldwide.
