Lacoste introduces its new L003 Neo sneaker model for the season and it is showcased by Global Ambassador Ella Mai in the new campaign. She is accompanied by hip-hop artist Midwxst as the two capture the dynamic design language of the shoe.
It builds upon the L003 legacy by merging the character of the runway with the versatility of the streets. The main inspiration behind the sneakers not only nods to the L003 heritage but also honors the radical movement of a tennis ball, as it bounces across lines. The shoes are made from a blend of neoprene and mesh across the upper and then secured with an intricate lace-fastening. Additional details include the perforated look around the silhouette which is slightly chunky.
