INTRODUCING KENZO-PACE THE SECOND RELEASE OF THE DEBUT SNEAKER SERIES FROM KENZO BY NIGO

INTRODUCING KENZO-PACE THE SECOND RELEASE OF THE DEBUT SNEAKER SERIES FROM KENZO BY NIGO IS INSPIRED BY AUTHENTIC RUNNING SHOES KENZO is unveiling the second edition of a series of sneakers designed by Artistic Director Nigo. 

Launching in September 2023, the KENZO-PACE is a highly technical, aerodynamic shoe that revisits the aesthetics of the universe of running – with a fashion-forward twist. Its name was chosen to highlight the notion of speed conveyed by its sporty look. 
To achieve the best levels of quality and technicity, KENZO worked with a specialist factory in Vietnam, masters in the art of sneaker-making, to ensure an authentic end product. The technical polyurethane of the upper is combined with various mesh combinations that are woven for optimal resilience. Although shock-absorbing and lightweight, the ‘maximalist’ outsole is tougher and heavier than on a traditional running shoe, facilitating everyday urban use. The hybrid “KENZO-PACE” is at the crossroads of functionality and style. 

The KENZO-PACE is available for men and women in a palette of all-white, all-black, and silver and white, as well as a dynamic combination of blue and black for men and pink and white for women. The shoe is punctuated by strong, reflective logo detailing, and contrasting graphics on the outsole are a nod to the stripes of a tiger, creating a dynamic verve between technical expertise and animal agility. The KENZO-Pace sneaker will be available from September 2023 for 390€ in KENZO stores and at KENZO.COM. The third drop of the KENZO by Nigo debut sneaker series will be announced later this year.
