Following the success of the first collection, a second project was undertaken. This time the Cabestan Vulc was developed into a mid for the first time, with 3 bright colours in a terry towelling material. 300 pairs of each colour were made, and sold at Atmos and 10 other global accounts in July 2009.
Launched in December 2008 at Mita in Ueno Tokyo, and then a month later with other global doors, this was a first outing for the M85 mid. Featuring hexagonal mesh overlays from Lacoste’s pro tennis footwear, a croc-embossed heel detail, speckled mid sole and purple contast colour pops.
To celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the brand, a special collection of Strategic Trend heritage styles were released in a classic black and white colour palette.
Spring Summer 2008 saw a burst of colours appear on the Lacoste New York Catwalk Show. To celebrate the 75th Anniversary of Lacoste a collection of the classic silhouette René Lacoste were created in a rainbow of colours.
