Coming on the heels of its successful Alpha and [Carbon Runner](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carbon-theory-grinding-cleansing-balm) launch in October, [LMNTS](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carbon-runner-1) has unveiled its brand new 'Lunar [Low](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sb-dunk-low-3)' silhouette -- a sleek new low-top sneaker made with premium leather.

Founded in 2021, the brand burst onto the sneaker scene with its minimalist approach to footwear, which focuses on clean lines and high-end materials designed to "serve a 24-hour lifestyle." With the Lunar Low, LMNTS continues to offer long-lasting, casual sneakers.

The shoes' uppers don a black suede and nylon combination which rest atop a clean white midsole with an air bubble heel. According to the brand, it is “the first-ever cup sole with an air bubble." In terms of branding, the sneakers are dressed with a subtle embossed heel logo and a metallic tongue piece that reads "LMNTS."
