Guide
Full breakdown
The Lanvin Curb launched in 2021 as a bold, chunky sneaker featuring an oversized rubber outsole with curb-like ridges, a multi-material upper combining suede, mesh, and leather panels, and an exaggerated silhouette. Designed by Bruno Sialelli, it became Lanvin's most hyped footwear release in years. The shoe is handmade in Italy with premium materials and positioned at the top of the luxury sneaker market around $900-1,100.
Questions answered
FAQ
Is the Lanvin Curb comfortable?
It's heavier than it looks due to the oversized sole, which can fatigue your feet over long periods. The cushioning is adequate for casual wear but this is a fashion shoe, not engineered for comfort. Short outings are where it performs best.
Is the Lanvin Curb worth the price?
The handmade Italian construction and premium multi-material upper are genuine. Compared to similarly priced luxury sneakers, the Curb delivers on craftsmanship. Whether chunky sneakers justify $900+ is a personal value judgment about fashion.
How does the Curb compare to the Balenciaga Triple S?
Both are chunky luxury sneakers but the Curb has a more refined material mix and handmade construction. The Triple S pioneered the category and has broader recognition, but the Curb is generally considered better-made. The Curb costs more at retail.
How does the Curb fit?
True to size for most buyers, but the midfoot runs slightly narrow. The multi-panel construction creates a structured fit that doesn't stretch significantly. Wide-footed buyers should try before buying if possible.
Will the Lanvin Curb hold its value?
Resale values have stabilized below retail for most colorways, which is typical for luxury sneakers after initial hype. Limited editions and collab colorways hold value better. It's a wear-to-enjoy purchase, not an investment.
