Having only released in white, Dior‘s semi-translucent B23 high-top sneaker is gearing up to welcome a contrasting partner in crime. Sporting the house’s all-over Oblique print throughout its upper, the same design is shared in black with white accents on the aforementioned upper, midsole stripes, and heel branding. Black cotton laces weave through silver eyestays, while each pull tab is treated in calfskin. Lastly, the rubber outsole incorporates debossed insect graphics at the forefoot and Dior’s logo at the heel.

Take an exclusive look at the Dior B23 High-Top sneaker in “Black Oblique” above and let us know how it compares to the previously launched white/black iteration. The model is expected to arrive on April 5 in limited quantities for $1,050 USD at select retailers and Dior.com.
