Sneaker-Inspired Luxe Boots

Balenciaga's New Tyrex Leather Biker Boots are Inspired by the Sneaker

Luxury fashion house Balenciaga introduces the new Tyrex Leather Biker Boots, which is an impressive silhouette that is designed with inspiration drawn from the house's own Tyrex sneaker model. The shoe boasts the same asymmetrical design in a bolder atmosphere.

The boots made its original debut during the Fall/Winter 2020 runway show, featuring a plethora of leather and motorcross themed looks. The sole unit is anatomical, true to the original Tyrex model, following through to the toe's detailing as well. The body is made to look like a motorbike boot for a dynamic design language for the season. It is crafted from white leather materials and overlayed with a shimmering black shin guard that features the brand's dual logo to round it all out.
