Lacoste x Married to the MOB
Apparel legend Lacoste has joined creative forces with Leah McSweeney’s streetwear brand Married to the MOB to create a lace covered sneaker that is charmingly sassy. Available in purple and gold color ways this hi-top sneaker brings a certain edge to the Lacoste footwear offering that will attract a new (Read: Downtown) female audience. “I have been wanting to work with lace for a while but was waiting for the right product. Once I saw the silhouette of the LACOSTE sneaker I knew the lace idea would work perfectly for this”, McSweeney explains. Intrigued yet? Both sneakers will be released Valentine’s Day week (the 13th to be exact) and will be available on the MOB website www.mttmnyc.com , hand-picked specialty stores worldwide including Colette in Paris and select LACOSTE flagship locations stateside. Retail: $120.00. The Verdict: Not since Jeremy Scott and Adidas has a pairing appeared so “odd”, but proved to be kismet. Follow your sole and take a vow to get these shoes!
