Luxury fashion label Valentino first introduced its Heroes Tribe sneakers earlier this month, and have just dropped two new iterations of the silhouette. The two new renditions re-imagine the design in a leather-skirted version and a captivating pattern. Both of the new models are adorned with embroidery details across the heel and have an elasticated ankle opening.
The new Heroes Tribe sneakers also boast Valentino Garavani branding details on the medial side of the uppers and are finished at the rear stud with ruthenium. The uppers are constructed from knit intarsia materials and the soles boast a lightweight foundation to maximize comfort. There are contrasting details exuded from the patent and leather paneling as well. The sneakers are priced at $895 and are available online at Valentino.
