Balenciaga Details the Runner Model in Unmissable Colorways
Luxury fashion house Balenciaga introduces brand new colorways of the Runner model, detailing the shoe with hi-vis hues that cannot be missed on those outdoor runs. The sneaker kicks off with a black base foundation made with mesh for a touch of breathability.
It is then layered with off-white materials imitating leather, followed by police blue and vivid green overlaying on top. This gives the shoe a nostalgic design that nods to the early 2000s with the slightly chunky silhouette. Additional details include the grey mesh tongue that is marked with branding details applied with embroidery, the Tipex-style sizing seen on the toe section in a white hue. At the back of the shoe is more sizing along with branding details to round it all out.
