It is often the case that one has to sacrifice function for style and vice versa but that is not the case with LANE EIGHT's everyday trainers. The brand's latest AD 1 silhouette is a design that is meant to address an existing gap between "normal, everyday athletes" and "world-class performance athletes." The result is an incredibly stylish footwear model that is a true combination of urban aesthetic and functional construction.
On one hand, the everyday trainers boast a knitted upper, ensuring a snug sock-like fit that will ultimately contribute to the adaptability of the silhouette to the foot. In addition, the outsole's hardwearing rubber offers a superior grip. On the other hand, the everyday trainers embrace urbanist-forward fashion and the unisex dust rose colorway makes a strong stylish statement.
