Balenciaga 3XL panelled sneakers "Black"

Widely recognized by the dramatic shape of its sole, the 3XL sneakers are a prime example of Balenciaga's keen eye for disruption and cultural referencing. The model takes on the quintessential running shoes of the 2000s and overemphasises elements such as the laces — present as a fastening method and decoratively around the toe — and the distressed effect.
