Luxury fashion house Balenciaga introduces a second iteration of its iconic Speed Trainers with the latest unveiling of the Speed 2.0. Designed by Demna Gvasalia takes the original design as the base
foundation before detailing it with new and updated design elements.
The classic three dimensional knitted sock material is retained at the upper as it sits on top of a lightweight sole unit for a clean and minimal aesthetic overall. This time around, there are also updates that center around agility and comfort with the articulated molded sole unit for even more flexibility. The original had a full piece whereas the update showcases five segments sectioned off to support the various areas of the foot for ultimate support overall.
