Each element of the design was carefully curated by the founders to represent what hip hop means to them personally.
The color black signifies hip hop's roots rising up from African American urban communities. Red accents reflect the blood, sweat, and passion fueling hip hop's constant evolution through five decades of innovation. Grey indicates hip hop’s links to “old school” history and acknowledgement of the pioneers who paved the way. The cracked leather upper represents city buildings covered in graffiti, while the patent leather nods to the vinyl records spun by pioneering DJs.

The MANTA Collection from Collection Plate draws design inspiration from the majestic manta rays. With their mammoth wingspans and effortless movement, mantas symbolize nature's innovation and the founder's vision to launch an ambitious new sneaker brand making its own waves in the footwear industry.
The premium materials featured on the uppers capture the grace and shape of mantas' distinctive horns, fins and tail. With plush cushioning and grip, MANTA sneakers are made for all-day wear, whether seaside or downtown.
