Lanvin - Fall/Winter 2009 - High Trainer


With Alber Elbaz’s efforts, Lanvin is not only a purveyor of well made designer dresses, it is now synonymous with swanky, luxury trainers for men who embraced sneakers growing up and are ready to take their rubber soled kicks to the next level. This season, the casual footwear collection is solid with a liberal use of premium material such as jersey felt, suede and leather that it almost seems offensive to call these numbers “casual”.


The High Trainer that just dropped at ALOHA RAG is subdued and mature in khaki and grey, fashioned from jersey felt and high-end suede, and lined generously in supple calf skin. The sneakers are dressed up for fall with gold studded hardware on some of the lace hoops and wrap around ankle straps, giving the shoes an extra luxury rock and roll edge that was popular and will still be this coming season.
