Tiffany & Co. plays April Fools' Day prank on followers with the release of a diamond-encrusted shoe.
Tiffany & Co. played a prank on fans for April Fools’ Day on Saturday with the fake launch of a new pair of diamond-encrusted sneakers.
A cinematic video to Tiffany & Co.’s official Instagram today saw the faux high top sneaker in all its glory, accompanied by a caption that read, “Introducing our latest creation: the Tiffany & Co. Facet. Ushering in a new category for the House, the sneaker is an homage to our vast diamond heritage.” The imaginative pair featured a gray and robin’s egg blue color way dotted with over 17,000 scintillating diamonds totaling a whopping 1,837 carats on each shoe. In addition to the diamond detailing, the shoe had a gray lace-up silhouette with thick rubber soles and thick gray velcro closures sat atop the lace detailing.
The teaser for the non-existent shoe is most likely inspired by the jewelry brand’s collaboration with Nike.
As previously reported in FN, Nike and Tiffany & Co. announced their debut sneaker collaboration together after images leaked online last week: a $400 pair of black and Tiffany-blue Nike Air Force 1 Low sneakers. The style has also gained vitality after being worn by none other than LeBron James. Previously, Nike also launched its own Tiffany-esque SB Dunk Low sneakers in a black and teal color scheme with Diamond Supply Co. in 2005, as well as luxury collaborations with brands including Dior and Sacai.
