Balenciaga’s Chunky ‘Triple S’ Sneaker Shown On The Foot

August 30, 2017. Leave a Comment

First shown on Balenciaga‘s fall 2017 runway, the French label’s chunky Triple S sneaker is nothing if not controversial. That said, while many have derided its bulky silhouette, comparing it to the over-sized shoes animated character Sonic the Hedgehog wore, the shoe currently is sold out at retail and no doubt it will be seen on the feet of a lot of very fashionable people during September’s fashion weeks.

Popular sneaker preview account @sneakerprophet has posted several images of version of the Triple S shoe that dropped in July (and is now sold out) and while its shown paired with a pair of skinny jeans, stylists seem to prefer styling it with more voluminous bottoms.

The shoe’s bulky antique cream-colored midsole and outsole is offset by a mesh off white upper, with some added energy coming from a pair of striped white laces.

Thus far, all Triple S models include Balenciaga branding on the lateral side of both shoes with the number 37 on the center of each toe box.

Check out some more looks at the shoe below.

Scathing 5,400-word report via The Cut's Tahirah H Scathing 5,400-word report via The Cut's Tahirah Hairston on Kerby Jean-Raymond whose label Pyer Moss appears to no longer be operational. 

Check out an excerpt below. 

Ten years in, Jean-Raymond’s star has only risen. He hangs out with celebrities (Tracee Ellis Ross, Brent Faiyaz), made a cameo on Insecure, and drives flashy cars (a McLaren 720S, an Aston Martin Superleggera, a Porsche GT3 RS). Meanwhile, his brand is nearly nonexistent.

There is no Pyer Moss boutique. The clothing celebrated on the runway was mostly not available to anybody who didn’t have a celebrity stylist to pull it for them, and company insiders complained that quality control was so uneven that at times what was produced was too flawed to be sold. Jean-Raymond sometimes missed deadlines, didn’t always pay bills, started other projects, and alienated allies. He referred to Pyer Moss as an “art project” and seemed reluctant to make practical choices. Among the fashion insiders who had cheered his rise, there has been a growing feeling that he has wasted an opportunity to build something important.

The last straw for many of his early supporters was his couture show in July 2021. Titled “WAT U IZ,” and put on in the U.S. during Paris Couture Week, it was a tribute to the various innovations that Black people have been responsible for, often without credit. The models came down the runway decked out in a jar of peanut butter and a traffic light. A lot of it wasn’t really clothing, much less couture. Even if the professional critics and other members of the fashion press seemed hesitant to publicly express their disappointment, they whispered among each other that he’d lost the plot of his brand.
