Shenzhen-based retailer COSTS collaborated with Diadora on a coral pink lifestyle sneaker called the 'COSTS x Diadora V7000,' presented as part of its 'rare and precious things' series. Themes of environmental awareness are integrated into the design, which highlights the handcraftsmanship from Diadora and quality material manufacturing from COSTS.
The sneaker is colored in sea tones of dark and turquoise blue. The uppers have a double-layer suede structure with black leather on the top. The sneaker also displays Diadora's pink emblem, which represents the pink corals of the ocean. There is also co-branding embroidered on the tongues, and a coral pink anchor emblem placed at the rear of the sneaker. Additionally, the wording "V.7000" is placed at the heels. The sneakers are available on March 11 for $1,699 in RMB.
