Next season, Etro—the iconic Italian brand and masters of print-on-print—launches its first men’s sneaker collection and the results are the unexpected mix of colors, textures, and fabrics that fans of the Milan-based design house have grown to love. The luxury brand’s inspiration behind the new footwear collection for Spring/Summer 2015 comes from the desire to create a casual shoe that incorporates the elegance and contemporary edge that the design team—headed by Creative Director Jacopo Etro—has been known for, since its inception in 1968.

Standouts from the collection include a high-top (shown above) which couples one of Etro’s signature paisley patterns with chocolate brown leather trim, an all-white paisley-embossed low style with hints of orange, and—our personal favorite—a playful, and more athletic approach that infuses lemony-yellow with navy blue and green.  The colorful and versatile collection will be part of a re-launch for Etro’s in-house footwear lines and the offerings are sure to be a hit when they arrive.
