Among premium sneakers with a sophisticated and luxurious look, the ones with unique designs that appeal to a bit of the connoisseur are the ones to aim for. From the wide range of brands available on the first basement floor Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building , we have carefully selected eight brands where individuality and class coexist.
