Who should not buy it
A well-respected and patronized luxury brand by Spanish aristocrats, Balenciaga ventured into creating sneakers to fulfill the demand of its growing high-fashion clients for luxury footwear. With recent feats of its sneaker line from the Balenciaga Speed Trainers to Triple S, the Spanish couture brand continues to release signature pieces for its growing clientele, whose desire for signature brands and high fashion has been bubbling up through the years.
The Balenciaga Track Trainers is a fitting follow-up to the success of the Speed Trainers and the Triple S—two trend-setting silhouettes that sparked the sock-like sneakers and chunky-soled kicks trend among hypebeasts and fashionistas.
Continuing the success of the dad shoe trend, Track Trainers are introduced on the runway as models strut in their Fall/Winter 2018 collection in what seemed like a silhouette that combines running and hiking kicks. The design is a bit leaner than the chunky-soled Triple S and has several layers and components in its design.
The Balenciaga Track Trainers was first dropped in Europe with an accompanying clothing line that matches the shoe. Balenciaga dropped the multi-layered design with a chunky ridged rubber sole, a round toe, a branded insole, a lace-up front fastening, a brand patch at the tongue, and mesh panels.
