The Lacoste AG-LT21 Ultra footwear collection is a high-performance range from the iconic French brand that also doesn't skip out on style. Debuted by tennis player Daniil Medvedev, at the 2021 Miami Open, the footwear boasts a sleek silhouette and a woven mesh upper that is lightweight and breathable. The mesh is functional while exposing the inner cage of the shoe. The footwear also features a "double lacing system, as well as a padded collar for optimal support and comfort."
Spotlighting Lacoste's latest in-house technology, the footwear features a lightweight and stable PEBEX frame, DOW foam for cushioning, a Goodyear rubber outsole and a KURIM support system that provides protection and stability.
"Even before trying the pair on, I really enjoyed its design and the varied color palette, that will allow me to change my style throughout the season. The look is new, different from what we are used to seeing on the courts. Just like any tennis player, I expect comfort as well as performance from my footwear, and I was seduced by the ease with which I was able to change direction while remaining very stable on the court," said Daniil Medvedev about the collection.
