Dior Marries Fashion and Function, Adding Protective Shroud to B31 Model

Sheltering its shoes from the storm.

Dior continues to dominate footwear with the addition of an inventive and thoughtful protective shroud to its futuristic B31 model.

The brand’s Men’s Head Footwear Designer Thibo Denis initially gave fans of the luxury fashion house a glimpse of the shoe during the summer 2022 show, but without their barrier. Continuing its utilitarian aesthetic, the sneakers bear a durable shape, well-suited for hiking and outdoor adventures. Arriving in two colorways, both footwear options are grounded in a fitting khaki green shade, while its mesh uppers are spliced with either a matching earthy tone or an electric blue hue. The B31 is also equipped with a Quicklace system for quick and easy adjusting on the go.

The new protective accessories hug the toe boxes, forefoot, outsoles, as well as parts of the heal, creating defensive barrier around the shoe.

Take a look at Dior’s new covers for its B31 model in the gallery above.
