The Lacoste Tribute Collection, set to be released within the next month, was created in honor of the company's early founder and late Grand Slam tennis champion René Lacoste. The collection goes back to basics with its meticulous shoe design and detailing. Each shoe within the Lacoste Tribute collection is inspired by a different Grand Slam tournament victory. To see which victory inspired which shoe design, a reference and embroidered year can be found on the inside of each shoe's tongue.
The shoe is available in five different colors, including white, black, blue, red and the classic white/green/black combination. The shoe is made with leather and mesh to provide for a lightweight and comfortable fit to keep you cool this summer. The entire Lacoste Tribute collection will be available in stores and online sometime this month.
