Well, we don’t know about you but Twitter users are unable to keep calm after looking at Balenciaga’s latest collection.
Balenciaga, one of the famous luxury brands, is making headlines for its “fully destroyed” sneakers. The shoes were launched under its “Paris Sneaker” collection. Sold in two styles – high-top, and backless mule – the destroyed sneakers have a price range of $495 (approx Rs 38,000) to $1,850 (roughly Rs 1.44 lakh). And guess what, the more damaged the shoe, the higher is the price. You will have to spend the most on shoes that are more slashed, scratched, and dirty. The limited-edition shoes – only 100 pairs available – are part of a new campaign by Balenciaga which suggests these “sneakers are meant to be worn for a lifetime.” Balenciaga's New "Fully Destroyed" Shoe Set????x R36 000 per pair????Would you wear these? pic.twitter.com/oEduoUs1Fj These Balenciaga distressed sneakers were launched on Monday, May 10 and it goes for $1,850.Would you rock this? pic.twitter.com/38U75M18wV Nueva Barbie Balenciaga pic.twitter.com/Wg9RCIvViA Alright, this is the worst sneaker I've seen today… Balenciaga has to be trollin pic.twitter.com/nmMTDePmB6 New Balenciaga “Paris” Footwear pic.twitter.com/eyWfMhAWJS Tag someone that deserves these new Balenciaga shoes pic.twitter.com/0yFmc99tP3 Anyone who buys Balenciaga needs to go see the therapist https://t.co/xHG5N75x9y
“A retooled classic design interprets mid-century athleticism and timeless casual wear in black, white, or red, with a white rubber sole and toe. It is finished with distressed canvas and rough edges, affecting a pre-worn look. A dedicated campaign shows the shoes extremely worn, marked up, and dirtied,” read the introduction of the new range on Balenciaga's official website.
