Thom Browne Tri-Color Grosgrain Basketweave Sneakers

Looks can be deceiving.  Such is the case with these Tri-Color Grosgrain Basketweave Sneakers from Thom Browne.  At first the upper looks like a red, white and blue grosgrain pattern printed onto leather.  However upon closer inspection, once I held these in my hands, I discovered that the entire upper is constructed of interlocked grosgrain ribbons secured by the lace grommets, heel stay, ankle piping and sole of the shoe.  Then to sweeten the deal he went and added wingtip tooling and lined them in leather to make these a special Spring pleaser for those wanting to treat themselves.  Available now at Ssense.com and at Dover Street Market at 160 Lexington Avenue at 30th St in NYC.
