Futuristic Sneaker Silhouettes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Lanvin Unveiled its Upcoming 'Flash-X' Sneaker in Four Colorways

— May 16, 2022 — Fashion
Lanvin unveiled its upcoming futuristic silhouette titled the 'Flash-X.' The Lanvin Flash-X sneaker is maximalist with an abundance of different materials and colors across its flagship colorways. For example, the Lanvin Flash-X 'Ecru/Golden' results in the sneaker resembling a geometric tiger, while the 'Lanvin Blue' colorway boasts a futuristic urban resemblance.

The silhouette itself is immediately recognizable by its thick midsole, its protruding heel that creates an angular shape, and its use of asymmetry across the toe vamp and upper. The upper of the sneaker showcases the Lanvin branding overtop a rubber piece, while the remainder of the upper includes a breathable microfiber material. The shoe also notably includes EVA foam accents that award it a futuristic maximalist look.

The Lanvin Flash-X is available online from Lanvin's store as well as various third-party retailers at an MSRP of $1,150 USD.
