THE fashionable folk at this year’s Pitti Uomo were in for a real treat when fashion powerhouse Givenchy announced a surprise collaboration with global sportswear giant Onitsuka Tiger.
The exciting collaboration marks a novel beginning for both players. It’s the first time Onitsuka Tiger joins forces with a luxury fashion house, while it’s also the first time Givenchy has opted to work with an external sneaker manufacturer for a global campaign.
The new Givenchy X Onitsuka Tiger collaboration utilises the silhouette of Onitsuka Tiger’s iconic Mexico 66 heritage style. The drop offers two limited edition sneakers.
First, there’s a completely white sneaker decked with the instantly recognisable Onitsuka Tiger stripe lines and dotted “Givenchy” engraving.
Next up, a black shoe decorated with red and white Givenchy lettering.
Just in case you forget which collaboration these kicks are from, both models feature the inscription “Givenchy – Onitsuka Tiger” on the back tab.
The Givenchy X Onitsuka Tiger shoes retail for RM2,800.00 and are available for purchase online here.
