# Flashy Minimal Luxe Sneakers Berluti Launches the Premium Tonal Pulse Sneaker By Amy Duong | Published 2021-01-11 | Luxury Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pulse-sneaker References: [hypebeast](https://hypebeast.com/2021/1/berluti-pulse-sneaker-menswear-kris-van-assche-canvas-leather) Bertuli introduces another Pulse sneaker that is minimally decorated with the spotlight shining on the new selection of colorways for the season. The construction of the shoe boasts premium materials throughout the makeup and notes both high quality canvas and leather. The inspiration behind the shoe stems from sporty themes and is translated through the [thick sole unit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/breeze-sneaker) with colorblocking designs to add some [retro aesthetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cortez-sneaker-model). Paneling through the shoe include nylon, leather, and canvas, which all weave together. There are accents that are hand-stitched to add some craftsmanship. The first of the two options is made from the aforementioned materials and the second is made using nylon, Venezia and Vitello leather materials. Both are complete with [minimal branding details](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/king-avanti) to round it out.
