From Polo to Basketball, La Martina’s Field 85s Are a Slam Dunk
If you don’t know La Martina, you’ll be glad you do now. The Argentinian brand known for its casual sportswear is branching out from its polo shirt comfort zone and stepping into the sneaker scene
Inspired by sporting culture, the sneaker is aptly named Field 85 paying homage to the year the brand was founded and the values it stands for. The shoe is inspired by the idea of ‘Field of Plenty’, a sporting concept focused on the magical community and die-hard fan culture that the industry gives rise to. You know that electric feeling on the field that comes from a shared passion for the game, for fair play, and sportsmanship? Well, that is what this shoe is all about.
The brand applied its expertise in technical design to ensure a balanced combination of performance and style. The result is a collection of clean silhouettes modeled after legendary basketball shoes of the ‘80s, with soft leather panels and vintage textures that are sure to turn heads, on or off the court.
La Martina has paid due diligence to detail and comfort when it comes to the materials used and the construction of the shoe, implementing soft leather all round and a padded collar for the high-top model. As an Argentine brand, La Martina had to give a nod to their roots by inserting design elements that pay tribute to the rich heritage of polo and the urban spaces of Buenos Aires. Whether you're a sports enthusiast, a fashion aficionado, or simply someone who appreciates high-quality footwear, these sneakers are a must-have addition to your collection.
Remember, fair play is not just a concept in sports; it's a way of life, and to really embody that spirit, you have to look the part. So lace up, step out, and represent that positive message with the Field 85.
The sneakers are available on lamartina.com and in select stores now.
