Christian Louboutin Rantus Orlato Sneakers Add Vintage Class to Fashion

— June 16, 2011 — Fashion
The Christian Louboutin Rantus Orlato sneakers prove that the brand can create more than just eccentrically studded kicks.

This pair of Christian Louboutin Rantus Orlato sneakers shows more of a subtle side from the brand. The kicks are being released for the Fall/Winter 2011 Collection. I'm pretty impressed with what I'm seeing. The contrast in tones and material compliment each other beautifully. The canvas and leather upper make the perfect combination that gives it a classy vintage appeal that most would be proud to rock on any occasion.

The Christian Louboutin Rantus Orlato Sneakers are different from what the brand normally does, but fans won't be disappointed with this design at all. The change in style is refreshing and it's always good to see how versatile brands can be.
