Bentley partners shoemaker to launch limited edition sneakers
Bentley Motors has partnered with shoemaker Dominic Ciambrone, known as The Surgeon, to launch limited-edition line of 10 Bentley-inspired sneakers, all currently reserved by Mulliner clients and collectors. As part of the partnership, Bentley will also unveil the 1-of-1 Bentley x The Surgeon vehicle next month during design week at Art Basel Miami. Alongside the car, one buyer will also be given a matching pair of 1-of-1 sneakers – the ‘Bentley x The Surgeon adidas Forum Low’.
Both Bentley and Dominic share values such as sustainability and innovation. The limited-edition sneakers have been made from ultra-premium materials. Each pair of sneaker boasts Bentley's signature diamond quilting, cross-stitching found on the steering wheel, and premium hides that are similar to those used to trim Bentley's interior designs.
