Louis Vuitton is preparing to release a new version of the famous LV Trainer sneakers. They will fully meet the ideas of upcycling: all pairs are made from recycled Louis Vuitton shoes from archival collections. The exact release date is still unknown, but the sneakers will be included in the brand's spring / summer collection called Upcycling SS21.
Launched by Virgil Abloh, the 2019 LV Trainer has been completely disassembled and redesigned. Thanks to this, we have a new stylish shoe - and all pairs are different from each other, and it is impossible to find two completely identical ones. The sneaker is crafted in soft calfskin and suede and features eye-catching tie-dye laces. A total of five new colors will be released on the LV Trainer low-top sneaker, with LV Upcycling embossed on the heel. The right shoe is also decorated with a fluorescent tag.

A special feature of the collection will be that in the set for each sneaker Louis Vuitton adds additional materials with which everyone can customize their sneakers themselves, as well as instructions, which will describe basic tips on how to do it best. The brand has yet to announce an official release date for the sneaker.
