Jimmy Choo Launches New Sneaker Line

30 01 2010


You heard right, folks. The same esteemed designer to bring you their signature handmade stiletto heels is now launching its premium casual footwear collection. Elle UK announced yesterday that the high-end couture brand is venturing out from their usual 5-inch style to more grounded territory, with the “addition of 8 sneakers in their pre-fall 2010 collection.” They are meant for those times when you want to trade your high heels with a more comfy, yet glamorous alternative….because going casual doesn’t mean you have to lose your step in style.

Sure to be a hit with on-the-go fashionistas, Jimmy Choo’s first attempt at tackling chic yet street-savvy kicks includes low- to high-top suede and snakeskin trainers in eye-catching colors and textures. The only leaked shoe features a high-top midnight blue colorway on a classic white outsole. Its upper blends a suede and snakeskin design, providing a strategic Jimmy Choo-like flair in its composition. Surely anyone with a pair of these will stand out in the crowd! Just be prepared to shell out for the hefty price tag: the cheapest pair of these run at about £295.
