# Hummus-Inspired Sneakers Le Coq Sportif's Shoe Designs Boasts Beige, Red and Green Hues By Kalin Ned | Published 2018-02-08 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shoe-designs1 References: [highsnobiety](https://www.highsnobiety.com/p/sneakerbox-tlv-le-coq-sportif-lcs-r800-hummus-release-date-price/#slide-2) & [lecoqsportif](https://www.lecoqsportif.com/eu-en/e-shop/shoes-man) The footwear industry launches various elaborate and [experimental shoe designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freizeit), in order to bring something fresh to the consumer, entertain and hover the fine line between absurd and stylish silhouettes. The Sneakerbox TLV and Le Coq Sportif collaboration is one of those goofy shoe designs. The LSC R800 'Hummus' is a hummus-inspired shoe, featuring a color palette that strongly references the beloved food. The upper is a combination of burgundy, green and beige. Dedicated to producing an authentic as possible appropriation of the [vegan-friendly dip](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asparagus-colorway), Le Coq Sportif and Sneakerbox TLV pack three different colored laces -- green, ochre and paprika, with each pair. It is conceivable how horribly wrong [food-inspired shoe designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sticky-kicks) could go, but it is safe to say that the LSC R800 Hummus is a successful, sporty and stylish silhouette for any casual occasion.
