Versace x Onitsuka Tiger sneaker

Versace and Onitsuka Tiger have put their Spring Summer 2026 collaboration on sale, led by a Japan-made TAI-CHI Sakura sneaker priced at $750. (versace.com) Onitsuka Tiger said on April 2, 2026 that the shoes launched that day after first appearing in Versace’s Spring Summer 2026 presentation in Milan in September 2025. The model is based on Onitsuka Tiger’s archive TAI-CHI sneaker. (corp.asics.com) Versace’s United States site lists nine products in the capsule: suede and nappa TAI-CHI Sakura sneakers at $750, metallic pairs at $795, and Sakura leather loafers at $995. The site says some orders are available as pre-orders and some pairs can be reserved in boutiques. (versace.com) The sneaker itself keeps Onitsuka Tiger’s slim, low-profile shape and adds Versace details. Versace says the shoes use double stitching on the side stripes and a Medusa metal detail on the tongue. (versace.com) Versace says the pairs are produced at the Onitsuka Tiger factory in Sanin Tottori, Japan, with uppers treated in a washing process to create an aged finish. That Japan-made positioning is central to the pitch for a luxury sneaker collaboration arriving in a market still crowded with retro running and terrace-style shoes. (versace.com) The collaboration also extends beyond one colorway. Versace product pages show brown-and-white, pink, black-and-brown, blue suede, and metallic versions across women’s and men’s listings. (versace.com) Versace’s campaign for the drop centers on the TAI-CHI Sakura and was photographed by Frank LeBon, according to coverage from PurseBlog and Footwear Magazine. Both outlets described the release as part of the wider appetite for slimmer, vintage-coded sneakers in luxury fashion. (purseblog.com, footwearmagazine.com) Some early stock already appears tight. A Versace regional product page for the pink nappa version showed the shoe marked “Out of Stock” on April 12, 2026, while the broader collection remained listed online. (versace.com) For shoppers, the story is simple: this is not a teaser anymore. The Versace x Onitsuka Tiger TAI-CHI Sakura is live now, with prices, colors, and at least one sold-out listing already on the board. (corp.asics.com, versace.com)
