As Levi’s® celebrates 150 years of its iconic 501®, the heritage denim brand aims to bring classic styles to the forefront. This season, the timeless “Glide” sneaker lands as the new hero product in its casual kicks offering.

In what the brand calls a fusion of “nostalgia and new cultural vanguard,” the latest model refines traditional basketball silhouettes with a raised platform sole and minimal detailing. Upholstered in full grain leather as well as alternative iterations in soft suede, a combination of high-quality materials are also incorporated to elevate its sleek design for wear in any setting.

Sustaining its classic form with modern function, the “Glide” comes peppered with technical details. From the lightweight Ortholite insole to the abrasion-resistant rubber outsole, it carefully balances comfort with all-round durability. The side panels and toe box arrive punched with finite perforation to allow ventilation through the hard-wearing leather.

For the first drop of the “Glide” sneaker, Levi’s® doesn’t hold back on variety with eight seasonally-inspired colorways applied to its sustainably tanned leather. Take a closer look at the sneakers as they glide into a CGI constructed universe.

Shop the new Glide sneaker on Levi’s® website and global stores now.
