Jimmy Choo release £2,795 ‘diamond’ trainers

Over the years we've had numerous luxury trainers on our wish list.

From Balenciaga Triple S's, to a pair of Off-White high-tops, neutral Yeezy's or gemstone-embellished Gucci's. But alas, with prices ranging from the hundreds to £1,000, the purchase seemed just a little extravagant.

These styles however now seem like a bargain, as Jimmy Choo has just shown us the future of luxury trainers with its latest release: The Diamond Sneaker.

As the name suggests, the deluxe shoe is dazzling, extremely expensive (retailing at a jaw-dropping £2,795) and you'll want to own a pair ASAP.

"For the debut deluxe Jimmy Choo sneaker we imagined how it would feel to step into a multi-faceted diamond, playing with the sense of lightness and clarity the different angles reflect. It was from this idea the Diamond sneaker was born.” explained Sandra Choi, Creative Director of the brand.

Using only the best luxury materials, the shoes are made out of crystal shimmer suede and doused in intricate Swarovski crystal embellishment.

The futuristic shoes also come with a clear TPU sole, putting a new spin on the oversized sneaker trend.

Love the style, but not the price tag?

The 'Diamond' range also boasts numerous less opulent styles for both men and women, from plain white to a metallic finish, the simpler options retail for a more reasonable £595.
