Louis Vuitton (Instagram) is pirouetting into sneaker culture with serious style. Enter the LV Sneakerina—a sleek, ballerina-inspired sneaker that fuses elegance with everyday ease. This latest launch from the French house takes the balletcore aesthetic and gives it a bold, streetwear-ready twist. Think of it as the sweet spot between satin pointe shoes and your go-to kicks.
Dropping first online on April 4, the LV Sneakerina is crafted for all-day comfort with a soft, Sacchetto-constructed sole—typically used in ballet flats—paired with a sturdy sneaker upper. The lace-up design is finished with a prominent LV logo, and a pull tab at the back makes them easy to slip on and off.
The launch includes eight different colourways, with combos ranging from muted beige and crisp white to eye-catching fuchsia and forest green. As for materials? Expect a luxe mix of mesh, leather, and technical satin—because nothing says fashion-forward quite like high-end fabric with serious functionality.
Following the online release, the LV Sneakerina will hit Louis Vuitton boutiques globally from April 11. Prices are still under wraps, but expect them to land firmly in luxury territory.
The ballerina sneaker trend is showing no signs of slowing. From Ganni’s athletic flats to Bad Bunny’s Adidas collab, brands are blending grace with street style—and now Louis Vuitton is firmly in the mix. The fashion house continues to expand its sneaker line as part of a broader push into athleisure luxury, and the Sneakerina proves it’s not just following trends—it’s setting them.
If ballerina chic with a sneaker soul sounds like your vibe, the LV Sneakerina might just be your new daily staple, it’s time to bring those dips and pirouettes to the streets. Now, to find a tutu…?
