When your Nike Dunks just won’t do

If you are looking to step up your kicks and you value hustling the streets in something that most sneakerheads haven’t even heard of, then look no further than Lanvin . Lanvin is a French brand started by Jeanne Lanvin in 1909. She grew her local dress boutique into an empire including a dye factory and shops devoted to home decor, menswear, furs and lingerie , ultimately created Lanvin Parfums SA and introduced her signature fragrance Arpège in 1927.
Lanvin has changed hands many time and has employed a number of designers who have managed to keep the brand’s design ethos while staying relevant to modern trends.
