Dior releases couture-style sneakers with handmade embroidery and soles

Jun 20, 2014

Dior will release five models of the "DIOR FUSION SNEAKERS" (135,000 yen each), sneakers that showcase the house's craftsmanship.

The design is inspired by the embroidered sneakers unveiled in the 2014 Spring/Summer Haute Couture collection. They combine couture luxury with futuristic and sporty elements. The sequined floral embroidery on the upper and the rubber-covered sole are all handmade. Images of the making of the sneakers have also been released, showcasing Dior's craftsmanship, from the design drawings to the embroidery, sole molding, and finishing.

These sneakers will be available exclusively at four stores from June 25th: Dior Ginza and Daimaru Shinsaibashi, as well as two pop-up stores: the Isetan Shinjuku women's shoe promotion on the second floor (until July 8th) and the Roppongi Lister (until July 31st).
