Tennis has always been at the heart of Lacoste, and the house’s latest sneaker brings that heritage into a fresh, contemporary silhouette. Following the launch of the exclusive Slam Break Premium, Lacoste introduces the Slam Break, a new footwear hero that draws inspiration from the lines, colours and visual language of the court while embracing the pace of modern street style.

The campaign moves seamlessly between the footwear atelier and the tennis court, spotlighting Lacoste’s ability to reinterpret its sporting heritage in unexpected ways. Every detail of the Slam Break reflects this balance between tradition and innovation, from the suede overlays, perforations and leather heel tab to the signature embroidered crocodile.

Comfort and performance are equally considered. The sneaker features a stretch-knit lining for a close, comfortable fit, while Lacoste’s ADS (Absorption De Shock) technology—originally developed for performance tennis models in the 2000s—forms the midsole foam compound to provide lightness, support and stability. A TPU heel counter adds further rearfoot stability, giving the lifestyle sneaker a technical edge.

Women’s Slam Break Sneakers, $175
The Slam Break comes in two distinct versions. The refined leather execution combines cream and white with subtle grass-green accents on the sole for a crisp, court-inspired look. The textile version takes a more relaxed direction, pairing ripstop mesh with metal eyelets and suede overlays in white, beige and rich chocolate brown for a retro-meets-modern feel.
