Creative director of Gucci, Alessandro Michele, taps into his affinity for animal prints and mythical creatures for this iteration of the Gucci Ace. The low-top tennis shoe applies a royal blue velvet construction throughout the upper design, featuring a dragon embroidery throughout the makeup to symbolize power, good luck, and strength. Gucci’s signature web trim can also be seen on the quarter-panel, while the interior is crafted with premium leathers by skilled Italian artisans.
