Reimagined Tennis Court Sneakers

The New Lacoste L001 and L002 Sneakers are Available Now

— April 30, 2022 — Fashion
Tennis fashion is making a bold comeback for summer 2022 and Lacoste is ready with the launch of its L001 and L002 sneakers.

For summer 2022, Lacoste has brought back the classic court sneaker from its tennis archives and reimagines it for the present day. The new L002 sneaker is made from women and features a sleek silhouette, chunky outsoles, and a combination of leather, suede upper, and mesh details. On the other hand, the L001 sneak is unisex and features a pebbled leather body, as well as a more court-meets-lifestyle shape. The idea is that the L001 and L002 sneakers both bring together Lacoste’s long association with tennis culture, as well as the brand's more present-day identity, which has evolved to resonate with other communities.
