Starter, the iconic American athletic brand established in 1971, is bringing back its iconic LFS 1 sneaker as part of a new collection.
Starter has been leading the pack when it comes to retro sportswear looks and now it is unveiling a new shoe collection that vintage lovers are sure to go crazy for. The LFS 1 sneaker is the star of the new collection and draws on the brand's deep pop culture roots – the brand was worn by influential artists such as LL Cool J, Run DMC, and NWA, just to name a few. The new LFS 1 sneaker gives a nod to this history with a retro athleticwear aesthetic, a classic low-cut design, and a sleek all-white colorway, save for the pop of color that is the brand's logo.
In addition to the LFS 1 sneaker, Starter's latest collection also features other styles inspired by its roots, such as the Breakaway 88 Low/Mid, Tradition 71 Hi/Low, and the Team Trainer 92 Low..
