Making more assured strides into the lifestyle scene, Italian luxury football brand Pantofola d’Oro have unveiled the new football-inspired Sneakerball silhouette, which borrows design elements from the Lazzarini boot.

Pantofola d’Oro have always sat in that luxury niche, quietly going about the business of producing some of the best and yet lowkey boots in the game. It’s very much a case of if you know, you know with them. And those that do know appreciate the artisan craftsmanship that goes into each and every silo that they produce. Now they turn their skill and attention in a lifestyle direction – while certainly not forgetting their football roots – with the Sneakerball silhouette.

The Pantofola d’Oro Sneakerball comes in a massive range of colour combinations, offering traditional blacks or clean whites, paired up with bold blasts of core shades, with bright blue, orange, brown, green and yellow being the order of the day.

The sneaker is handcrafted with many of the details of Pantofola’s famous Lazzarini football boot forming the basis of the upper, which is then set on a black 3D Vibram sole for a modern twist. The sneaker boasts an extended, folded – and removable – tongue, along with contrast panels, and the handstitched contouring that’s so recognisable from classic boot design.
