ellesse has stepped into the premium fashion space with the first teaser of their upcoming drop: the LSR sneaker. Designed in Italy and honouring their founder Leonardo Servadio’s dedication to craftsmanship, the LSR is rooted in the brand’s rich history, whilst being elevated for the modern wardrobe. 

Inspired by the archive and reimagined for today, the design concept of ellesse’s LSR is derived from one of the brand’s greatest pieces: the iconic LASER shoe. It’s easy to see how this clean, sporty sneaker was used as the foundation for a new legacy-inspired design.  

Living up to the founder Leonardo Servardio’s passion for quality and attention to detail in sportswear, the LSR takes the shape of a beautiful, sleek silhouette without compromising on comfort and fit. Designed and hand finished in Italy, the sneaker oozes comfort and luxury. 

The LSR will be available in four main styles: LUXE, DNA, ARCHIVE, and POP. Each style will feature unique characteristics. LUXE, the LSR’s hero, is set to offer suede detailing and will be available in three colourways: black, white, and red. Other styles, to be revealed in the following months, will feature leather or silver detailing and an even broader variety of colourways. 

Keep an eye out for the LSR arriving this September. It’s set to usher in a luxe new era for ellesse, while celebrating the past 65 years of heritage.
