What better way for a brand to unveil its latest product than a two-day artistic event in Paris? For Lacoste, the event was the perfect opportunity to create an immersive opportunity that showcased their latest design to the world. From February 28 to March 1, the event took guests through a unique experience that revealed the purpose and message behind their newest sneaker. With the motive of bringing attendees through the journey of darkness to light, the event counted with artwork from five different artists that utilized various mediums throughout the space. Using artwork from upcycling specialists, architects, and avant-garde collectives, the event showcased how light can be manipulated and displayed. Besides showcasing these works of art and the sneaker, the event included live performances, customisation workshops, and a curated bookshop. This launch was an all-around immersive event that was the ultimate way to display their newest L003 sneaker.

While the event showcased various artworks, the newest L003 Neo Shot sneaker took center stage. A new addition to the French-based brand’s L003 collection, the Neo Shot sneaker utilizes clean lines and remarkable hues to make its point. Colorways for the sneaker include a sleek black color to a vibrant green tone, ensuring an option for all preferences. Crafted with premium mesh, synthetic, and nubuck materials, the sneaker’s uppers don a multi-panel style that gives the design its retro-futuristic style. The shoe’s rubber outsole features anti-skid picots, which ensure users still have necessary traction. With monochromatic EVA midsoles, the design comes together into one sleek sneaker. Available via Lacoste’s website for $125, the newest sneaker is the perfect upgrade to your athletic sneakers.

Like most fashion houses as of late, Dior is taking another look at their footwear lineup.

In their newest release, Dior is taking on another chunky sneaker that speaks to the quality and craftsmanship that has made the house a standard in designer goods. While the sneaker is far from the sleek and opulent silhouette you would expect from Dior, it contains all of the premium details and construction that come with the name. With a nod to the recent chunky ‘dad’ shoe trend, the most recent Dior sneaker is a statement sneaker that turns a trail sneaker into the latest trendy designer shoe.

ASICS and SOMEWHERE release an ‘unexpected’ new sneaker

SOMEWHERE, ASICS release new sneaker

It’s not uncommon for footwear brands to find collaborators from different industries and niches. In the past, footwear brands have partnered with musicians, artists, and even car companies. While it’s not unusual, it’s certainly not an everyday occurrence. This concept is especially true regarding a collaboration between a famed footwear brand and a cafe. Thankfully, D.C.-based cafe and clothing store, Somewhere, is no stranger to partnerships. In their most recent adventure, the multifaceted store is joining forces with ASICS for a new sneaker that’s clean and effective. While not the first collaboration between the two brands, this new design is a perfectly minimalist shoe that uses pops of color to make it come alive. Full of small details and fun accents, this sneaker is a perfect example of how unexpected partnerships can produce successful designs.
SOMEWHERE x ASICS GT-2160 “Out of the Blue”

ASICS and Somewhere have reached for the brand’s retro-futuristic GT-2160 model for this minimalist collaboration. With a crisp white synthetic fiber upper as a base, the duo opted for a contrasting cobalt blue on the heel counter and parts of the sole for a striking look. The signature blue is also found on the design’s laces, accented by SOMEWHERE’s wordmark. Alongside the shoe, users will receive a unique keychain, alongside a second pair of laces in neon yellow in a custom shoe box. While there’s no denying that footwear collaborations have become the new norm in the industry, the partnership between SOMEWHERE and ASICS showcases how a long-term and less frequent release is also a special moment for fans. While this release has not seen a global launch, New York fans can purchase their pair with a special pop-up on March 8.
