First showcased during its recent Fall 2024 presentation in Los Angeles, Balenciaga has now fully unveiled its new Sock Sneaker. No stranger to sock-inspired footwear, the new true Sock Sneaker features familiar technical knit uppers making for extremely lightweight and comfortable wear. The uppers wrap the foot and extend up the ankle for a high-cut-like look reminiscent of tube socks.

Designed by Demna, the shoe prominently features the Balenciaga logo embossed on the back of the soles. The soles are crafted to wrap around the foot for a comfortable and secure ride.

Stay tuned for official release details for the Balenciaga Fall 2024 Sock Sneaker.
