With tons of athletic footwear being showcased on the Spring/Summer 2014 haute couture runways, Lanvin Homme will be releasing its own collection of men's sneakers next season.
The slick sneakers for men will be made with luxurious materials including textures like calf leather, lizard skin and polished python. In addition to some practical neutral shades, the footwear collection for men also has some unusually bright shades like pink, orange and turquoise, plus crazy prints like zebra. The couture aspect of the sneakers can be seen in the fine details on the shoes, such as the laces, metal accents, zippers and flaps. The luxe Lanvin Homme men's sneaker collection is set to launch in stores and on the brand’s website midway through September.
