YRU's 'BLAZ3' sneaker is a chunky and 90s-inspired style that is offered in two bold colorways that both feature a signature, flame detail. Drawing inspiration from recent motocross and racing-themed styles that are an homage to nostalgia, the flame-accented shoes boast a holographic upper consisting of fabric, plastic and vegan leather.
In addition to a red colorway that features black, iridescent and and white accents, YRU also offers the shoes in a purple hue which is accented with similar aquatic tones of blue and silver.
Mimicking the silhouette of runway cult styles like Balenciaga's widely popular Triple S shoe, YRU offers its own whimsical and budget-friendly version for a Millennial core demographic. The brand's club kid-friendly style is also evident with its focus on bright colors that are more daring than its luxe point of reference.
