The Air Max Gets a High-Fashion, Ballet-Inspired Makeover

This collaboration takes the Air Max Muse, a women’s exclusive model that debuted in 2024, and completely reimagines it through the lens of the current “Balletcore” trend. KNWLS applies its signature audacious sensibility to create a design that is both delicate and disruptive.

The most striking feature of this shoe is its high-pointed toe, which is directly inspired by classic ballet pointe shoes. The soft, quilted upper is adorned with laces that elegantly wrap around the ankle like ribbons, further enhancing the ballet aesthetic. However, this is where the traditional references end. A futuristic, athletic dimension is introduced through a split-sole unit that houses a large-volume visible Air unit in the heel, setting it worlds apart from conventional ballet footwear.

This one-of-a-kind sneaker masterfully brings a high-fashion, feminine essence to contemporary streetwear. Be sure to check out this unique pair that perfectly merges two distinct worlds.
