le coq sportif SS16 Quartz and Wendon – A First Look
The LE COQ SPORTIF SS16 QUARTZ AND WENDON sees the brand take a trip back in time and get back to its roots.
When they originally released, both of these models were initially used exclusively by athletes on indoor sport surfaces, but for SS16 LE COQ SPORTIF are bringing them back as part of their lifestyle collection. With the combination of retro design and timeless colours, inspired by the brand’s archives, both shoes maintain a retro feel, even though they have been updated to match current trends. They feature premium materials like suede and leather and use cutting-edge technology for everyday comfort and support. The WENDON is slim and rounded, characteristic of the ‘60s, when it was first designed, which makes it popular with women, who appreciate its delicate yet sporty silhouette. The more angular QUARTZ, first released in 1981, is celebrating its 35th anniversary this year, and takes on a more masculine and modern look. The aim was to make these past icons accessible again. Their style hasn’t really aged, but they have still been brought up-to-date by reworked them using contemporary materials and techniques. If you fancy something with a truly classic look, you could do a lot worse than this duo.
