Retro sneakers collection

The new Vita-Parcours comes in its original, 1974 form 

Swiss luxury fashion label Bally brings back its best sneaker styles over the past decades. 

The throwback collection includes four replications of Bally’s most successful lace-ups, from hip-hop era classics to smashing tennis shoes and sporty runners.

The Competition (1983) 

The original Competition has been replicated with the same shape, lining, and sole as the original shoe from 1983. Featuring a technical shock absorbing polyurethane sole, flexible rocker heel, cushioned tongue, and an extra inner sole, the sneaker is finished with Bally’s signature side stripes and a sporty rubber-gum sole. Taking cues from its predecessor, it blends the old sneaker’s appeal with a more modern sensibility. The upper stays true to the original 1983 Competition but the angular sole and curved toe cap clearly channel 2017. The replica in white is available for both men and women alongside one additional derivation for men in suede snuff grey. 

The Galaxy (1983)

Keeping with Bally’s origins in elevated sportswear, the Galaxy mixes luxury suede with a breathable canvas, while a sporty treaded sole provides traction. The original runner is Bally’s lightest sneaker and perfectly complements any outfit with its universal and unisex style. The original model in garnet has been reproduced for both men and women with the original running sole. Two new versions in Kodak yellow and black are available for men, and a more feminine blush derivation for women, crafted in canvas with suede and plain leather details. 

The Vita-Parcours (1974)

A more urban shoe, the Vita-Parcours retains its checkerboard motif, keeping the spirit of the iconic shoe intact. Made with a modernized sneaker sole, (also used in Bally’s Heimberg collection) the sneaker comes in its original form and seasonal colors for men in ocean, curry, and snuff grey, and for women in ocean and peach.

The Super Smash (1965)

Bally presents a throwback collection featuring four of its best sneakers styles: the Competition, the Galaxy, the Vita-Parcours, and the Super Smash.

Bally’s most popular plimsoll from the ‘60s has been reissued with a vulcanized sole, making it more robust while maintaining comfort. Featuring the same Bally logo on the side, these canvas shoes are available as exact replicas for men and women, in both high and low top versions. The women’s collection includes the original canvas shoes as well as leather derivations in black and white with metallic trimmings. High top styles are also available with heart, lightning bolt, and edelweiss details on the side. The men’s collection includes original low and high top canvas styles in black as well as leather low top versions in white, black, and terra brown. 

Bally has stores at Greenbelt 5, Rustan’s Makati, Shangri-La Plaza, and Newport Mall.
