This is Anthony Veer Labs' very first Kickstarter, so there's no past delivery track record to lean on. That said, the parent brand Anthony Veer has real shoe-making credibility, which gives this innovation lab a strong head start. Backers are already showing trust, blowing past the funding goal early.
A dress shoe that walks like a sneaker is the kind of category mashup that just makes sense. The Apollo Hybrid nails the executive-meets-athlete aesthetic without screaming "comfort shoe." Smart engineering hides under a clean, professional silhouette.
The brand leans into performance and longevity, which beats fast fashion shoe churn by default. Materials and sourcing transparency could be spelled out a bit more clearly. Still, a shoe built to last is a quietly responsible choice.
The 2 Pack Special runs $338 for two shoes (Oxford and/or Sneaker), bundled with AVL socks and a travel shoe bag. That's roughly $169 per pair for a hybrid dress-meets-sneaker shoe, which lands well under premium dress-shoe pricing. Optional sock add-ons start at $15, so it's easy to dial the pledge to your wardrobe.
