After the huge success achieved in 2017 by Disruptor, Fila continues its trend of chunky sneakers with a brand new model.

Fila Venom shows up as direct heir of now famous bold silhouette sneakers: despite some 90ish features (excessive proportions and simplicity of colors), Venom has well-planted roots in modern culture. The thick sole gives dynamicity to the upper thanks to the grooves in the back (now become cliché in the sneakers game) while the upper has been built using three different materials: the mesh base features suede panels and white leather stripes that interwove and form the so-called "fangs of the viper" on the toebox; hence the name of the shoe.

Fila Viper will be distributed in two colorways, fila red and shady glide, and will be available online and in store starting Friday 25th May online.
