Balenciaga has just dropped a new collection, and Dubai pays a big part.
The brand has launched the Balenciaga Cities Series, along with a campaign, to go along with the new Phantom sneaker that has just dropped.
Of all the fashion brands, Balenciaga is the one who is establishing its own identity in the sneaker world without the help of the big sneaker brands, causing Phantom to cause quite the stir in both the high and street fashion world.
The silhouette is a sign of the times in which Asics and New Balance have become a huge part of high fashion, and the Phantom feels particularly Asics inspired, some have pointed out.
The Cities Series features products inspired by local and tourist loyalty to certain cities, including our very own Dubai.
The collection is available exclusively in Balenciaga stores in the locations that are paid homage to, including Dubai and Kuwait City.
The Paris-themed Cities pieces and Phantom sneakers are available worldwide.
Separately, Balenciaga’s newest addition to its Objects line is a reusable porcelain coffee cup,
And in conjunction with the Balenciaga Cities series, each cup features a varsity-style logo, representative of the store at which it was purchased and will be available in 25 different cities.
