Louis Vuitton debuts the LV Sneakerina—the perfect blend of ballet flat and sneaker.
Hybrid shoes are making waves in high fashion, and Louis Vuitton gives its nod of approval. Enter the LV Sneakerina—ballet-inspired sneakers that effortlessly blend feminine elegance with sportswear utility. Crafted for movement, this slender yet sporty silhouette delivers both comfort and agility. True to its name, the LV Sneakerina bridges two worlds together, inviting you to explore its versatility.
Whether you dress it up or down, one thing remains—the magic of Sacchetto construction and ultra-light interior design. While the Sacchetto technique isn’t new to Louis Vuitton, the Sneakerina adopts it as a nod to classic ballet flats. The lining and insole are stitched together for a glove-like fit, providing a lightweight feel and all-day comfort. Though minimal at first glance, the Sneakerina reveals layers in design.
From the double laces to contrasting textures, every detail adds depth.Louis Vuitton offers a rich palette of seductive tones: lambskin with suede calf leather trim in fuchsia pink, green, and light beige; velvety hazelnut brown; LV signature in Monogram canvas in black and white; and a standout silver in metallic grained calf leather.
All pairs are finished with a Monogram canvasback loop. The soles? Barely visible.The interplay of textures and tones echoes the shoe’s core concept—contrast.“Not a sneaker, not a ballerina”, but a perfect fusion of grit and grace.
LV Sneakerina retails for RM4,750.Available online at my.louisvuitton.com or visit Louis Vuitton stores in Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, The Exchange TRX,The Gardens Mall and Suria KLCC.
