If you're looking for the next cool thing in fashion (and sneakers), Copenhagen is the answer. The city just wrapped up another exciting fashion week, complete with divisive Havianas flip-flop heels and a particularly artful adidas sneaker from O.Files, which, it turns out, will be releasing after all.

Well, for a lucky few, that is.

But first, let's dive into the sneaker of discussion: O.Files' Origami BW Army. The brand essentially reworked the classic military trainer, decking it out in pleated leather. To be more specific, O. Files crafted its collaborative shoe from a single piece of leather, which was folded three times and then distressed. It's all inspired by the brand's signature origami technique, where it treats its clothes like the famous folded paper art.

When applied to an adidas classic, it results in luxe art for your feet.

We've seen the BW Army reinterpreted in all sorts of ways. There have been pairs with slick patent uppers, "aged" leather, and even torn-up canvas. And thanks to A Ma Maniére, the military sneaker has also evolved into a clean soccer shoe.

But pleated leather BW Army sneakers? That's a first. And O.Files made it happen, thankfully.

You'll need all the luck to cop them, too. After appearing at the brand's Copenhagen Fashion Week presentation, the Origami BW Army sneakers are now on display at O.File's newest installation, surrounded by the items that inspired it. Those who visit the exhibition will get the chance to score a pair.

Can't make the installation? No worries. As we speak, O.File is hosting a raffle on its Instagram account and will announce the winner on August 17.
