Louis Vuitton has been introducing a bevy of new initiatives and products in recent memory such as the opening of its latest Italian Café in Taormina, Sicily and its FW23 Camera Bag that is fully functional as an actual camera. And now to draw in its footwear fans, the French luxury house has just released its all-new Skate Sneaker that was designed by Colm Dillane of KidSuper for the brand’s Fall/Winter 2023 show.

Like past LV Skate silhouettes, this latest proposition is engineered with a beefy build. Its uppers are brought to life with a blend of premium calf leather and technical mesh and accompanied by a set of bicolor double laces. If you look at the contrasting overlays, you’ll notice that the piece that starts at the collars and runs to the toe boxes is shaped like an “L” while the other overlay situated by the forefoot forms a “V.” Additional branding is spotted out on the heels and toe boxes, both of which feature monogram flowers while the padded tongues are accessorized with an “LV” badge.

The made-in-Italy kicks are available now in a striking “Grey/Green” colorway via Louis Vuitton for $1,360 USD.
