STREETSTYLE MEETS SPORTSTYLE: ENTER THE SUPERSNEAKER
FOOTWEAR SO GOOD IT DOESN’T TOUCH THE GROUND
A battle has been brewing and - as is tradition - the big fight scene takes place in a pedestrian heartland. Although you won’t see capes and leggings in this heroic standoff. Instead of a life-or-death clash between superheroes and supervillains, this is an evolutionary merger between Street Style and SportStyle as technology-informed lifestyle sneakers collide with elevated interpretations of streetwear classics to form the ultimate fashion alliance.
Salomon ACS Pro sneakers are paired with a soft-knit Acne Studios Cardigan, while Stain Shade’s watercolour socks connect Visvim lace-ups to ERL’s chequered take on skate shorts. In a medley of agile chassis systems, Quicklaces and cushioned soles, archetypal technical footwear spins the wearer on his head, dissecting him from the ground and his own shadow.
Inspired by performance, driven by lifestyle, supersneakers break the laws of fashion and gravity.
