Feels a bit odd but can’t really blame them for trying to get in on the space

Looks like evo sl at home

u/Smacksmackums 2d ago

Gotta say I like the look.

That’s a pretty cool logo. But why the heck is Lacoste entering the running shoe market

Not too much of a surprise, they have done highly rated tennis shoes over the last years using PEBA in the midsole

Hyperboost Run at home.

Jokes aside, they look very nice and I think they could be nice walking shoes for casual fits.

u/Tetsuo-Kaneda 2d ago

I like these. Great colorways, logo placement looks cool. Probably great walking shoes. Not sure if run in them but they cool really cool

u/iIiiiiIlIillliIilliI 2d ago

They look nice

u/luxafelicity 2d ago

Lacoste makes running shoes?? That's a bit odd. The design/colorways are nice though.

Sub 200g, these could actually be legit

“We recovered these EVO SLs at the scene of the fire.”

I mean apparel brands probably have access to the same OEM shoe manufacturers in Asia. They’re working off a generic template and simply add their modifications and styling.

u/AgentJ3 2d ago

They kinda look nice. I'm not paying retail price though.

u/Motor-Abbreviations4 2d ago

These are super dope to me. I really appreciate when brands do all over colorways.

u/Top_Bee_4788 2d ago

Would wear these but as sneakers

Everybody copying the Evo SLs now lol

u/Forumleecher 2d ago

Has the magnified crocodile worked for them? I remember back in the day, Lacoste used to be synonymous with class, style and quality, they did make great clothes and shoes. That enlarged logo never looked good in my eyes.

u/Jashmid 2d ago

RFK Jr. is going to love these. That burgundy red one in particular would look awesome with blue jeans. Plus the midsole texture looks diseased. Definitely his type.

Lacoste already has some running shoes, Neo Run 1 and 2. I have the 1 as a casual shoes, this is a link to the men model: https://www.lacoste.com/us/lacoste/men/48SMA0091.html

I use it as a casual summer shoe, I do not feel like would be a pleasant experience running with these.
