Archetypal Lifestyle.
Balenciaga is looking to mend your Monday blues with an archetypal shoe called The Monday. Justly named for its everyday versatility, The Monday is a conceptual take on vintage running shoes, aiming to merge the lines of athletic footwear with a handmade aesthetic.
Serving as the house’s first all-leather hybrid shoe, a leather upper is stitched onto an ultra light-weight rubber sole. The shoe features raw edges, visible stitching and intentional distressing for a DIY-inspired design.
Balenciaga’s The Monday sneaker is available on the brand’s website for pre-order. Check out the still images below.
