Couture Crocodile-Textured Kicks

The Lanvin Mid Top Sneaker Features Cool Neutral Tones

— January 24, 2013 — Fashion
From the Spring/Summer 2013 collection, the Lanvin Mid Top Sneaker is now in stores, featuring a cool crocodile texture that adds interest to the sleek shoe.

In all neutral tones, the different panel design is mostly grey with a white trim and tread, some navy and forest green detailing and a beige center that reaches all the way up the tongue. The grey laces run through gunmetal grey eyelets and have a waxy finish that won't come undone as you're going about your day. Made in Italy out of 100% premium leather, the subtle suede and smooth leather panels provide contrast for the crocodile structured leather, making it stand out even more.

For relaxed shoes that are all about comfort and sophistication, go for the textured Lanvin Mid Top Sneaker.
