Pharrell is keeping Louis Vuitton close to skate culture with a new preview of the brand’s upcoming skate-inspired shoes. The new red Louis Vuitton skate shoes were shown as part of the Men’s SS27 Combi direction, giving fans an early look at where Pharrell is taking the brand next. The design mixes luxury fashion with a streetwear and skate feel, made to look wearable both on and off the board.

Since becoming Louis Vuitton’s Men’s Creative Director, Pharrell has continued to bring music, street culture, and skate influence into the brand. This new shoe feels like another step in that direction. Louis Vuitton has also been working with real names from the skate world, including Tyshawn Jones and Yuto Horigome, which makes the move feel more connected to the culture instead of just using skateboarding as a trend.
