The much anticipated new Lacoste Cassel will be releasing soon. Inspired by hiking boots, the shoe follows the trend of outdoor oriented sneakers that we have been seeing from many athletic footwear brands. The Cassel comes in a black/purple and brown/yellow colorway and will soon be available at Flauge.

Detailed images of both colorways of the Lacoste Cassel follow after the jump.

Lacoste will be introducing an interesting new model – the Cassel. 
"Dubbed the Cassel, this lightweight hiker is part of the Stealth range planned for next year.  Looking nice and tight, especially in the aubergine and grape, we can also vouch for its comfort and flexibility having roadtested the Cassel ourselves… perhaps the Japan inspired outdoors/hiking vibe is finally about to crossover?" Via SneakerFreaker .
We certainly welcome this bold move by Lacoste, who have been until more busy reviving classics in their Stealth collection and adding premium materials to it. The Cassel has all the characteristics of a classic hiking boot, but an overall more sleek look, maybe something that will make an easier introduction into Europe.
