Not many are aware that Thibo Denis is currently the footwear lead at #DiorMen. After releasing iconic silhouettes like the B22 technical mesh sneaker, low-top (and high-top) B23 followed by the perfect day-to-night B27 and B30 sneakers under the creative direction of Kim Jones, Thibo pushes the envelope once again by introducing the B31 Runner Sneaker. The acclaimed footwear designer first offered a sneak peek of the Khaki/Turquoise pair on his Instagram back in November 2022.
Fast forward several months, and the B31 Runner Sneaker officially rolls out in stores. Part of the #DiorMen's Spring-Summer 2023 collection, it comes in four another colour combos. These include eye-catching combinations of Beige/Orange and Brown/Khaki, along with two easy neutrals in black and white. All pairs are fitted with technical mesh and the distorted Cannage motif in rubber. Using techniques typically reserved for hiking shoes, Dior Men integrated outdoor elements into the B31 Runner Sneaker.
Finishing touches include a sculptured rubber notched sole for maximum traction, as well as a CD Diamond drawstring cord. Besides making it a breeze to slip in and out, these features also elevate the shoe for the everyday. Going for SGD1700, the refreshing B31 comes with the right touch of sporty elements for daily wear.
