The Dior B29 Sneaker Is Here, And It's an Athleisure Dream

Having been cooped up at home over the past few years, most of us have made several lifestyle changes. And, as we re-evaluate our priorities, our preferences in fashion tend to follow suit. So, if you're like the rest of us, you've probably switched to more comfortable and practical choices for your daily rotation. Instead of reaching for the usual oxfords in your shoe rack, you may have realized that a trusty sneaker is a more viable option. Fortunately, Dior is already one step ahead of us.
For summer 2022, the label launched the B29 Sneaker—a rubber shoe with a modern design and a hint of retro-cool. Composed of smooth leather, the B29 has a polished surface that holds up even after continuous use. It is also made of suede calfskin which means that the fabric, while durable, is soft and lightweight when worn.

Designed for intense physical activities, the sneaker integrates technical mesh and a rear reflective insert. Such functions ensure breathability when performing strenuous tasks, as well as visibility in low-lit conditions. So, if you're planning to go on a run or urban trek late at night, you're pretty much set. In addition, it's highly stretchable and easily adjusts to the soles.

The new iteration is also available in multiple colorways. For a classic look, you can opt for either black or grey suede. But, if you have your eye on something more playful, there's also the beige variation with orange outsoles. All of which come with the hallmark CD icon on the tongue and laces.
