What better way for a brand to unveil its latest product than a two-day artistic event in Paris? For Lacoste, the event was the perfect opportunity to create an immersive opportunity that showcased their latest design to the world. From February 28 to March 1, the event took guests through a unique experience that revealed the purpose and message behind their newest sneaker. With the motive of bringing attendees through the journey of darkness to light, the event counted with artwork from five different artists that utilized various mediums throughout the space. Using artwork from upcycling specialists, architects, and avant-garde collectives, the event showcased how light can be manipulated and displayed. Besides showcasing these works of art and the sneaker, the event included live performances, customisation workshops, and a curated bookshop. This launch was an all-around immersive event that was the ultimate way to display their newest L003 sneaker.

Step into the light with Lacoste’s L003 Neo Shot sneaker

While the event showcased various artworks, the newest L003 Neo Shot sneaker took center stage. A new addition to the French-based brand’s L003 collection, the Neo Shot sneaker utilizes clean lines and remarkable hues to make its point. Colorways for the sneaker include a sleek black color to a vibrant green tone, ensuring an option for all preferences. Crafted with premium mesh, synthetic, and nubuck materials, the sneaker’s uppers don a multi-panel style that gives the design its retro-futuristic style. The shoe’s rubber outsole features anti-skid picots, which ensure users still have necessary traction. With monochromatic EVA midsoles, the design comes together into one sleek sneaker. Available via Lacoste’s website for $125, the newest sneaker is the perfect upgrade to your athletic sneakers.

After the success of adidas’ luxury Samba sneaker from the Made in Italy collection, the famed athletic brand is elevating another one of their iconic silhouettes. With the Gazelle sneaker on the forefront this time, adidas adds some luxury to the casual sneaker with premium materials and craftsmanship. While the Gazelle has recently seen some sophisticated upgrades with the Dime collaboration, the new iteration of the shoe sees a sleeker and more minimalist approach. On trend with the elevation of specific sneakers by brands, the Gazelle sneaker appears to mimic more of the look of a classic Italian dress shoe rather than an everyday shoe. Whether you wear it with your suits or everyday wear, this stylish Gazelle shoe is another way to elevate your footwear rotation.
adidas Gazelle Indoor Made in Italy

Donning a monochromatic black colorway, the adidas Gazelle Indoor is the next design getting an elevated treatment via the brand’s Made In Italy collection. The sneakers are crafted from locally sourced premium leather and a black suede T-toe panel for added texture. While crafted in all-black, the smooth leather and texturized suede mixture allows for an elevated and versatile look. While most Gazelle sneakers contain branding around the sneaker, this iteration will have a more minimalist approach. With a debossed effect, the Gazelle branding is incorporated on the tongue and its heel and quarter. Finishing the sleek look are waxed laces that bring it all together. The newest Gazelle sneaker will be available via the adidas webstore starting March 13 and retail for $350. An easy way to wear sneakers with your more formal attire, the Gazelle Indoor Made in Italy sneaker is an investment in a versatile shoe that’ll see plenty of use.
