Thibo Denis Shares Previews of the ERL x Dior Men's Spring 2023 Collection

— May 25, 2022 — Luxury
Thibo Denis and Dior have worked together on a pair of luxury hiking boots in the past, and this time the partnership brings a new pair of skate-inspired sneakers. The footwear designer describes the collection as “California Couture,” and it consists of chunky magenta trainers with Dior’s signature Oblique pattern on the laces. The thick topstitching adds a dimensional effect to the shoe, utilizing Dior Cannage fabric to tie together the shoe.

The DIOR x ERL shoe also arrives in a light blue and black edition with dark tones on the stitching details. A gray and beige suede sneaker joins the lineup, decorated with the fashion house’s motifs. The suede sneaker comes in brown, mauve, and khaki green.

The ERL x Dior Men’s Spring 2023 sneakers will release shortly.
