Dries Van Noten - Climbing Ballerina Snake-Effect Leather Black Low Top Sneakers
The women's Dries van Noten Climbing Ballerina sneakers in Black channel the house's 70s marathon inspiration, using snake-effect leather for a rich, textural upper and contrast white leather trims to sharpen the silhouette.
Set on a soft, thin rubber sole with a leather insole, the design keeps a lightweight, ballerina-like feel while the lace-up fastening provides a secure, adjustable fit. The rust colourway gives the snake-effect a warm, earthy tone that feels refined without being loud.
Made in Italy, the sneaker balances vintage athletic cues with Dries van Noten's more delicate, fashion-led approach. It works especially well with tailored trousers, relaxed denim, or flowing separates, where the slim profile and printed leather can stand out.
Style the Dries van Noten Climbing Ballerina Snake-Effect Leather Low Top Sneakers with wide-leg trousers and a crisp shirt for a clean modern look, or pair them with a midi skirt and simple tee to lean into the shoe's feminine, retro energy.
