Marc Jacobs unveils his latest sneaker with a thin sole, embracing the global trend with a retro-inspired, feminine and accessible design.
The thin-soled sneaker trend is gaining serious traction in the fashion world, and Marc Jacobs now joins the movement with the release of The 72 Spring Sneaker, his newest footwear offering. Drawing from vintage sports aesthetics, the design blends a low-profile silhouette with a bold Y2K attitude, cementing this shape’s dominance in today’s market.
Available in four versions —mesh, brown suede, black leather and distressed denim— this new model retains the spirit of classic sneakers while reimagining it through a feminine lens, marked by bold colour combinations and graphic detailing. It doesn’t aim to reinvent the wheel, but rather offers a playful and personal take through Jacobs’ unique perspective, staking a claim in a category where brands like Adidas, New Balance and Bottega Veneta currently lead.
One of the most appealing aspects of The 72 Spring Sneaker is its price point: starting at $225, it’s significantly more affordable than other luxury alternatives. The model is available in sizes up to EU 41 and can be purchased directly from the brand’s online store. In a market flooded with reinterpretations, this release reinforces that the thin sole isn’t just a passing trend — it’s a style statement that continues to evolve.
