Art in Motion: A Keith Haring Inspired Collection
MALAYSIA, 4 JUNE 2026: FitFlop unveils its Spring/ Summer 2026 collection inspired by Keith Haring, an artist who used the streets and subways of New York as a living canvas, capturing the energy and rhythm of human movement. Marking the 40th anniversary of Haring’s New York Pop Shop, the collection celebrates a legacy rooted in joy, accessibility and connection, translating his unmistakable visual language into footwear made for everyday movement.
Launching from 20th May on FitFlop.com, followed by global rollouts across EMEAI, APAC, and the Americas in June, the collection channels Haring’s energetic linework through the performance-led design approach of FitFlop, balancing expressive artwork with
real-world wearability.
Opened in 1986, Haring’s Pop Shop was created to make his work accessible, removing the barriers between art and people. Four decades on, that same democratic spirit sits at the heart of FitFlop, whose biomechanically
engineered footwear is designed to support real life movement, for real people.
Louise Noble, Chief Product and Brand Officer, says: “Keith Haring’s work has always been about people, how we move, connect and experience the world together. That belief in movement as a shared human experience is central to FitFlop. This collection isn’t about placing art on product, but about translating Haring’s energy, optimism and accessibility into footwear designed to be lived in, every day.”
Each style acts as a moving canvas, with Haring’s instantly recognizable figures positioned to emphasise rhythm and flow across the foot. Uppers, straps and heel counters become points of expression, creating the sense that the artwork moves with the wearer at each step.
The collection spans five silhouettes: The Dash Trainer, Gen-FF Fisherman Sandal, Gen-FF Webbing Sandal, Gen-FF Two-Bar Slide and IQUSHION Flip-Flop. All Gen-FF sandals feature
The collection uses pressure-diffusing Microwobbleboard midsoles, while The Dash Trainer and IQUSHION Flip-Flop incorporate lightweight IQUSHION technology for lasting comfort.
Key motifs include Haring’s animated figures embracing the iconic heart symbol, dancing in pairs and the infamous barking dog, each powerful representation of connection and shared humanity. These symbols mirror the FitFlop belief in footwear that supports how people move through the world, comfortably and confidently.
A refined palette of red, black, white, and silver, unifies the capsule with an instantly recognizable impact. The collection is supported by a global creative campaign that animates
Haring’s figures, extending the artwork beyond product and into digital expression, reinforcing movement as both a physical and cultural language.
The SS26 FitFlop x Keith Haring collection will be available at selected FitFlop boutique stores and FitFlop.com.my, with prices ranging from RM279 to RM699.
