Balenciaga continues its marathon of running-inspired trainers with an equally sporty pair for the new season: the
Runner. Heavily influenced by kicks from the 90s and 00s, they’re shaped with breathable mesh panels, a sculptural tread for grip and contrasting banding, and they also stick with the brand’s deconstructed tropes—note the “worn-out” scuffs, raw cuts and glue patches over the upper.
