Back in matte black, the Prada Toblach returns to the market bolstered by a new, contemporary vision. Initially stomping onto the scene in 1997, when Linea Rossa’s footwear designs made their runway debut during the AW98 show in Milan, these hybrid trainer-loafers redefined what performance luxury looked like. Now, they’re rendered in smooth calf leather, but what really pulls gazes down to street level is the Toblach’s engineered rubber sole – a pioneering design that walks the line between formal structure and technical function. On offer as an ankle boot, moccasin and lace-up, each cut steps straight into the AW25 Prada Men’s collection.
One of the first houses to design high-performance sports footwear, Prada has long been a purveyor of the high-performance meets high fashion design language, and these rebooted icons are proof that innovation never really goes out of style. Nearly 30 years on and the Toblach still flexes the spirit of Prada’s forward-looking innovation – a dialogue between heritage and modernity that refuses to stand still. Timeless, technical and tailored, the Toblach isn’t just back – it’s laced up for the future. Shop the Prada Toblach here.
