Fall isn’t just the beginning of a new season; it marks the start of fashion month, where trendsetters and creators alike learn the must-have new trends for the following year. While the runway often leaves many clothing trends to analyze, it has recently become a hub for the latest footwear fads. Recent fashion weeks have provided sneak peeks into upcoming collaborations and releases, giving fans ample advance notice of what to expect next. During this year’s Milan Fashion Week, Versace and Onitsuka Tiger offered a glimpse of their collaboration, set to hit shelves sometime in 2026. While we may need to wait a little longer to see these designs up close, the runway has already provided plenty of ideas about what we can expect from the duo.
Get ready for a Versace x Onitsuka Tiger collaboration next year
On the heels of Dario Vitae’s debut as chief creative officer of Versace, the brand’s latest show in Milan gave fans a glimpse into what will likely be the hottest footwear collaboration in 2026. Presenting two different styles in eight variations, Onitsuka Tiger and Versace have crafted the ultimate hybrid luxury sneaker. The first of the two designs, Onitsuka Tiger’s TAI-CHI, has been remastered with Italian materials and crafted in the brand’s factory in Italy. Along with the brand’s signature Tiger stripes along the lateral panels, the design features Versace’s Medusa symbol on the vintage suede upper. The second design features a collaborative loafer that also appears to work well in texturized materials, lending a luxury and elevated look. Both designs made their runway debut in a variety of hues, making them easy to style with all of your looks. While the design will likely hit stores in 2026, these first glimpses promise a shoe that will likely take over the industry.
