Louis Vuitton have revealed an upcoming footwear collaboration with Nike, previewed at the luxury brand's Spring Summer 2022 menswear runway show today.
Louis Vuitton mesnwear designer Virgil Abloh is of course no stranger to a Nike collab so the eventual pairing seemed almost inevitable, however the news is sure to still be exciting for LV fans and sneaker enthusiasts alike.
The shoe uses the classic Air Force 1 silhouette as a base for multiple imaginative iterations of the style, applying the Louis Vuitton monogram and Damier patterns across a variety of colourful textiles.
Several Virgil touches can be spotted across the shoe collection including "AIR" printed soles and labelled laces, plus co-branded "Louis Vuitton Air" tags stitched to the tongues.
Embossed trunk bags were also seen on the runway with tags featuring the bold Nike Swoosh branding signifying possible further tie-ins to the collection.
The Louis Vuitton x Nike collection is expected to roll out alongside the LV Spring Summer 2022 menswear collection later in the year.
