Christian Louboutin Spring / Summer 2010 Gold Embroidered Sneaker

Christian Louboutin, the luxury footwear designer known for his signature red-soled shoes, is releasing the Gold Embroidered High Top sneaker. It is one of the only two sneakers offered in their Spring/Summer 2010 Collection, the other being the highly talked-about “Louis Spikes” studded design. This one sports detailed craftsmanship, with the gold net embroidery enveloping a white leather base.

Delving into the sneaker market was such a smart move for this shoe designer. Louboutin’s have dominated high-end women’s footwear, becoming the must-have stiletto for celebrities, fashionistas, and shoe enthusiasts alike. Expanding the well-known brand to include men’s sneakers just makes sense. Pharrell Williams has already been seen wearing the “Louis Spikes” sneakers. We’re going to have to wait and see who will be spotted in these gold embroidered high tops.
