Virgil Abloh Gifts Don C With an Exclusive Pair of Louis Vuitton Sneakers

Words By Candice Nembhard

Less than 24 hours after debuting his first collection for Louis Vuitton SS19, Virgil Abloh is already dishing out exclusive drops from the brand to streetwear contemporaries.

Chicago-born streetwear designer Don C revealed via Instagram that Abloh had gifted him with an exclusive pair of Louis Vuitton kicks. The sneaker has a white and green colorway with gold LV branding on the upper. Abloh added a personal touch for Don C, handwriting "DON" next to the branding and adding "CHICAGO, MICHIGAN AVE" on the midsole.

While it’s highly unlikely the kicks will get a wider release, you can check out the original posts below for a closer look.

If you're on the hunt for more Abloh, peep our rundown of Louis Vuitton's Paris Fashion Week SS19 runway show here.
