The Balenciaga X-Pander ‘Grey’ delivers a neutral colorway of an experimental sneaker that debuted as part of the luxury fashion house’s Spring 2021 ready-to-wear collection. The centerpiece of the unique design is the suspended heel, featuring a spring-loaded mechanism that creates a 40mm gap between the distressed polyurethane midsole and durable rubber outsole. The weathered aesthetic continues on the upper, inspired by early 2000s running shoes and composed of breathable grey mesh with tonal synthetic overlays. ‘Balenciaga’ is inscribed across the tongue, while the shoe size is imprinted on the back heel.
