Lacoste L!VE and BAIT Team up for a Limited Edition Shoe
Referencing the brand’s sporting heritage through a nautical lens.
Lacoste L!VE and Long Beach, California retailer BAIT recently teamed up on a shoe that references Lacoste’s sporting heritage and offers a fresh take on an established archetypal archive style. Drawing aesthetic influence from the iconic crocodile and adding nautical references, Lacoste and BAIT reinterpreted the Inca model, wrapping the shoe in premium oiled leather with heat-embossed crocodile scaling.
A big part of the shoe is the textural contrast seen throughout the model, emphasized by the monochromatic tone displayed. Nautical flag-inspired BAIT branding on the tongue webbing and co-branding in the inner liner rounds up the design of the shoe. With 500 pairs available globally, the BAIT x Lacoste L!VE Inca is available now at Lacoste and BAIT stores.
