Thoughts on the new Louis Vuitton running shoe?

It's January 2020 and for those who don't know, that means Paris Fashion Week is right around the corner. Like, it's going down in a few days. That said, previews of new product hitting runways are starting to surface.

All eyes are still on Virgil Abloh since being named head director for Louis Vuitton's men's line. PFW is now a double header for him showing Off White AND Louis Vuitton.

With the dad shoe trend still going strong, a new Louis Vuitton running shoe has been created. The shoe 100% takes inspiration from Asics, Saucony and even Brooks running shoes. I guess it's safe to call this design the essential running shoe. Is that fair to say?

That may be the case, but we all know these new LV runners won't retail for $140-$160. Word is these runners will be available sometime in 2020. If I had to guess I think retail will be $520-$650.

How do you feel about this new LV running shoe? Let's talk about it.

I think I understand SOME high fashion brands a little better now. However, this is not for me or traditional sneaker people, this is indeed for LV/high fashion crowd.

The majority who like this design will just buy a fire colorway of Asics, Saucony, Brooks or another running brand... and save a bunch of money lol
