PRADA America's Cup high-top sneakers in black patent leather🔥New!

New! w/replacement Prada box. The Prada America's Cup high-top sneakers are a legendary piece of streetwear history, blending luxury craftsmanship with high-performance sportswear. ⛵ Origin & History The Sailing Connection: Originally designed in 1997 specifically for the Luna Rossa sailing team to wear during the 2000 America's Cup yacht race. The Iconic Stripe: While the shoe debuted in 1997, its most defining feature—the bright red Prada Linea Rossa strip on the tongue—was added for the Spring/Summer 1999 campaign. Streetwear Transition: Engineered strictly as a technical deck shoe for grip on wet yacht surfaces, it quickly transitioned into urban nightlife and music subcultures by the early 2000s, helping birth the modern luxury sneaker category. 🛠️ Design & Key Features Material Mix: Built with a combination of high-gloss patent calf leather overlays and heavy-duty, breathable technical fabric (often referred to as "bike fabric"). High-Top Silhouette: Features an elongated 5-inch ankle shaft secured by an adjustable hook-and-loop ankle strap sitting just above the traditional lacing system. Performance Sole: Equipped with a lightweight, flexible 40mm rubber sole featuring deep lens-design tread patterns designed to channel away moisture and optimize traction. Pricing: Brand new pairs generally retail directly from official channels for around $925 to $1,170 USD.
