Justin Bieber Spent Four Years Working on His Latest SKYLRK Sneaker: the Sensory Runner

Everyone is getting sensory.

From acupuncture and cupping to sensory deprivation, everyone is getting in on the tingly feeling. At Nike, the Mind Collection and a newly filed patent are bringing sensory activation to your soles, and beyond Beaverton, Justin Bieber wants in on the game, too.

Sensing New Vibes

The SKYLRK Sensory Runner is the latest silhouette from Bieber’s streetwear and sneaker brand, expanding past slides, slippers, and 3D-printed soccer shoes into a more cohesive sneaker program. After debuting his first lace-up model with the Matterdaddies in June, Biebs is back with a stacked sole and webbed upper on the all-new Sensory Runner.

Debuting in a black and white model in a set of on-foot images posted to Instagram by Bieber, the shoe features a white base with thin black support lines creating a web around the silhouette, but we’re still waiting to hear if there are any sensory details added into the footbed or midsole. To us, the model looks a little bit like a rip of Tyrese Maxey’s new signature silhouette from New Balance mixed with the sole of an NB 9060.

SKYLRK Sensory Runner Details

The SKYLRK Sensory Runner doesn’t have a release date or retail price yet, but with Bieber showing off the shoe on IG, we expect more details and a drop through the SKYLRK webstore soon. To keep up with all the latest independent footwear news and drop info, download the Sole Retriever App.
