Louis Vuitton has released the luxury large platform sneakers called the Archlight 2.0 Platform Sneaker. These sneakers derive from the success of their predecessor, the Louis Vuitton Archlight Sneaker. These sneakers were designed by Nicolas Ghesquière, artistic director of Louis Vuitton's women's collections.
The shape of the sneakers is not dissimilar to its predecessor, but a few style changes are added to them. The sneakers arrive in different colorways. The design contains an experimental rubber platform sole that maintains the arch but now comes with a thicker appearance and a more technical aesthetic. Specifically, the new platform adds two inches to the height of the sneakers. Some unique colorways that these sneakers will have are a military-styled appearance with knitted uppers. Another unique colorway is the all-black loafer-based appearance. The sneakers are available for purchase.
