Versace's newest offering is its covetable sneaker collection of new Squalo Sneakers. The collection debuted at the Fall/Winter 2019 show and compliments both casual and formal looks. The new kicks are designed with the idea of moving about freely as if you are floating leisurely in the ocean. Each pair of shoes sport a chunky platform sole, with sharp-lines on its outsole resembling the teeth of a shark (hence the name) and portrays the wearer in a new and formidable light.

Just as the Great White Shark is the king of the ocean, the wearer is the king of their own element. The collection comprises an array of versatile sneakers each featuring a bi-color scheme. The outsole is adjoined with a mesh and enhanced by Greca tape straps with a comfortable knitted collar. The unique chunky silhouette is maintained throughout the collection, only differing in color and embellishments.

The sneakers boast exceptional Italian craftsmanship and are unisex, easily adapting to the feminine and masculine foot. A distinct detail is the incorporation of a braille writing on the toe meant to signify 'Love' and Gianni Versace's signature donning the sides of the sneaker. It also features the signature Versace top-stitching with the brand's logo embroidered on the tongue and the trademark Medusa etched in the outsole.

Browse the Versace online store to get your hands on the luxe footwear. Here are our five favorite sneakers from the Squalo collection:
