While sports like Formula 1 and golf have recently reentered their seasons, other activities like tennis and padel aren’t losing steam. As sports like tennis, padel, and pickleball continue to rise in popularity among those looking to experiment with new athletic activities, brands are taking note of their footwear collections. As part of P448’s expansion into the performance space, the brand is launching a new court sneaker for indoor sports. Made with Vibram, the court sneaker is crafted with functionality in mind to withstand high-impact usage. Available in four new colorways, the court sneaker is a versatile option for on and off the court. Although this is the Italian brand’s first experimentation in the performance footwear space, the premium details and features don’t allude to it being its first performance shoe.

Created with polyester uppers, the new court sneakers feature a high abrasion resistance Vibram rubber sole that protects the design from constant wear and tear. Also featured on the new P448 sneaker is a patented foot cage for support, durable ripstop nylon, and a memory foam insole, which adds to the shoe’s comfort and stability features. While just the first of P448’s new performance category, the design already has four distinct colorways. The tones available include Green/Sand/Orange, Gunmetal/Grey/Blue, Black/Purple, and Black/White/Lime combinations. With a pair of matching laces included, the new release from P448 is a promising first step for the Italian brand. Now available via P448’s website, the sneaker retails for $298 in all color options.

Honing in on that style, KENZO has teamed up with Converse for the first time, in a partnership that blends two historic projects. In this design, NIGO takes on the Chuck 70, one of the designer’s personal favorites, for a contemporary remix that includes three new shoes.
