LVMH-owned brand Kenzo has announced Kenzo-Dome, its first trainer style produced under the creative eye of artistic director Nigo, who took up his position with the house in September 2021, Footwearbizm.
The name of the new model, a 1990s-inspired casual skate shoe, directly references Le Dome, a popular skateboarding spot just in front of Paris’ Palais de Tokyo modern and contemporary art museum. All campaign imagery was subsequently shot by photographer Frank Lebon at the city landmark.
Available from June, the Vietnam-made trainers come in four colourways in total, in either nubuck or suede leather, complete with a thick rubber outsole and triple topstitching for enhanced durability.
Kenzo was founded by France-based, Japanese-born designer Kenzo Takada in 1970.
We bring leather, material and fashion businesses together: an opportunity to meet and greet face to face. We bring them from all parts of the world so that they can find fresh partners, discover new customers or suppliers and keep ahead of industry developments.
We organise a number of trade exhibitions which focus on fashion and lifestyle: sectors that are constantly in flux, so visitors and exhibitors alike need to be constantly aware both of the changes around them and those forecast for coming seasons.
