SNEAKERS

This season’s offering of women’s sneakers transcends everyday comfort with playful details and luxury materials. Minimal low-top sneakers place artisanal handcraft and fine calfskin and lambskin front and center. Quintessential canvas high-top sneakers and leather wedges provide solid foundations for unconventional tailoring. Sought-after designer collaborations reimagine signature styles and vintage throwback models through unexpected detailing, innovative technical textiles, and sculptural shapes. Suede, velvet, shearling, felted wool, and fur textures provide additional warmth. Soft color palettes, playful appliqués, and elegant crystal-cut detailing bring touches of femininity, while hyperbolic treads and platform soles, high-shine patent leather finishes, and heavy distressing command an avant-garde aesthetic.
