Interestingly, Speed Trainer model hasn't been shown in Balenciaga's runway or campaign.
It is able to sense Balenciaga's futurism and it's spirit of sports through the minimalism in the design.
Despite the criticism that Vetements and Balenciaga is similar in many aspects, Demna Gvasalia's sense shown through this product makes Balenciaga outstanding.
Most of all, the fact that Demna Gvasalia has attracted numerous young
people with this item, is the greatest achievement for him.
