With the Olympic Games Paris 2024 on the horizon, KENZO, a Premium Partner of the event, is celebrating the occasion with an exclusive iteration of its KENZO-PACE sneakers. This new color variation, designed by Artistic Director Nigo, continues the series’ legacy with a vibrant, patriotic twist. The low-top model, available for both men and women, features a striking red, white, and blue palette that pays homage to the French flag, embodying national pride.

The sneakers boast a white mesh base, overlaid with silver detailing that adds a touch of contemporary sophistication. Gold-finish accents punctuate the design, particularly on the iconic “K” logo on the side, the “KENZO” branding on the navy tongue, and the contrasting graphics on the sole. This meticulous attention to detail ensures that the KENZO-PACE stands out in any urban setting, blending fashion with functionality in a unique and eye-catching manner.
To ensure the highest quality and technical excellence, KENZO collaborated with a specialist factory in Vietnam renowned for its expertise in sneaker manufacturing. The technical polyurethane upper, combined with woven mesh, offers unparalleled resilience and durability. This choice of materials guarantees that the sneakers not only look good but also withstand the rigors of daily wear.
One of the standout features of the new KENZO-PACE sneakers is their shock-absorbing, lightweight outsole. This design element provides superior comfort, making the sneakers ideal for all-day wear. Unlike traditional running shoes, the outsole is engineered to be tougher, ensuring that it can handle the demands of city life while maintaining a stylish appearance.
Set to hit the shelves in July 2024, the KENZO-PACE sneakers will be available for €390. Consumers can purchase them at selected KENZO stores, online, and through leading fashion retailers. This launch not only marks a significant addition to the KENZO-PACE series but also reinforces KENZO’s position at the forefront of contemporary sneaker design.
As the anticipation for the Olympic Games Paris 2024 grows, KENZO’s latest release truly captures the spirit of this monumental event. With Nigo’s visionary touch, the new KENZO-PACE sneakers combine patriotic flair with innovative design and outstanding comfort.
