Yves Saint Laurent is staking its claim to the luxury sneakers market by dropping these SK8 Hi-influenced high tops. The YSL sneakers will be available in the two leather options above, as well as a third suede option unveiling soon. In the current market of sneakers getting ever wilder and wilder, with fringes, wings, Stormtroopers and velcro becoming de rigueur, it’s nice to see YSL keep their lines clean and simple. A beautiful shoe. If you live in Boston, pick them up at Concepts today.
