It’s 100% a mystery to me why more designers don’t produce high heel sneakers. Every time a pair come on the market they fly off the shelves.
Anyhow, Christian Louboutin knows a money-making shoe when he sees one, hence his new Boltina trainer high heel.
This new 4.8 inch stiletto has mesh side-panels and lining just like a sneaker. However dig beneath the surface and you’ll find the designer’s iconic red-sole – which is leather of course.
The sneaker high heel has a Christian Louboutin logo detail on both the tongue and heel.
UPDATE: as at at December 2021, this shoe has sold out and is unavailable for sale. It was once sold from Neiman Marcus for $1,095 in April 2015.
If this high heeled sneaker becomes available again we will link to retail outlets from this post.
In the meantime, we will keep this article live as it shows that Christian Louboutin did once make a sneaker heel – and to encourage him to perhaps do it again!
