Karl Lagerfeld has (hands down) created the coolest, most decadent, and wildly extravagant sneakers for Fendi’s Karlito Capsule Collection. As a whole the collection promises to be both luxurious and playful, and the Karlito Sneakers definitely live up to the Fendi campaign:
“An eye-catching capsule collection that is both ironic and sophisticated, fusing fur with denim and sportswear in a playful yet luxurious way” – Fendi
The shoe effectively lives up to Fendi’s high brand expectations. With its genuine fox-fur trim appliqués in red or aquamarine and its velcro closure. Fusing street style attitude with gorgeous fox-fur trim as only Karl Lagerfeld can do, Fendi’s high-top sneakers in black and white leather with Velcro straps, fur appliqués, white accents, and yellow rubber soles will turn every head. Contrasting embroidered “Karl loves FENDI” (Don’t we ALL?!?!) signature detail at the shaft adds the perfect last touch.

If you’re not excited yet, you will be after watching top models Lily Donaldson, Joan Smalls, Nadja Bedner, Doutzen Kroes, and Kendall Jenner playfully modeling the collection from head to toe, asking in a where is Waldo sort of way, “Where is Karlito?” Although in the video, the answer is obviously rhetorical, we know you really will be asking that question soon and the answer will be, “He’s sold out.”
Just like Fendi’s fox-fur bags, these sneakers are expected to fly off the shelves. And, just like the bag, don’t wait to buy your sneakers or you may be placed on a long waiting list. Of course, we would love to help you find your favorite piece from the collection if your size is already missing. After all, that’s what shopping on demand with Fashion IQ is all about.
