Louis Vuitton LV Skate Sneaker in Purple Mesh and Calf Leather

Pros

• · Catalog build: functional mesh, smooth calf leather and suede calf leather uppers, a functional monogram-print lining and a rubber sole.
• · Double laces, an LV Vuitton tongue logo, monogram flower on the side and sole, and a rear pull tab with LV initials.
• · Listed in sizes 35–45, with 38 and 46 offered as made-to-order.

Cons

• · A buyer review of the LV Skate describes a firm insole — noticeably less cushioned than a Yeezy 350 V2, so not a plush comfort shoe.
• · A buyer who handled the LV Skate in store found the silhouette bulky, closer to a Lanvin Curb than a slim LV Trainer.
• · Buyer sizing reports for the line conflict, ranging from half a size up to a full size down.
• · Made-to-order 38 and 46 are listed as non-returnable and non-exchangeable.

Fit notes

Conflicting, and none of it is specific to this purple pair. LV's own page for one LV Skate says the style runs large; a pre-owned marketplace says take your exact size; buyers report half a size up to a full size down, one finding the toe box narrow. Ask the seller for insole and outsole measurements.

Buy if

You want the mesh-and-calf-leather LV Skate build in purple and are willing to verify fit first — ask the seller for insole and outsole measurements, since line-level reports run from a half size up to a full size down.

Skip if

You want a slim, low-profile sneaker, or a plush cushioned ride — buyers of the line describe a bulky silhouette and a firm insole. Skip it too if you cannot confirm fit before the order goes in.
