Balenciaga Spring 25 Sneaker Box Clutch

The limited edition Sneaker Box Clutch from Balenciaga’s Spring 25 collection reimagines the classic shoebox in pale gray lightweight calfskin, featuring magnetic closure and cut-out handles. This playful design continues Balenciaga’s tradition of avant-garde, experimental aesthetics.

Design Inspiration

Design inspiration details

True to its name, the Sneaker Box draws inspiration from Balenciaga’s iconic shoebox design. The bag made its debut at the Spring 25 collection show held at Shanghai’s Pudong Art Museum, where it complemented the dramatic Platform sneakers and cyberpunk aesthetic of Demna’s vision.

Gray Minimalist Silhouette

Gray minimalist design

The clutch is crafted from gray lightweight calfskin with kraft paper-colored polished calfskin lining, faithfully reproducing the shoebox’s color scheme and structure. The side cut-out handles feature a half-cut design where the leather flaps can be folded inward for comfortable carrying.

Gray remains one of Balenciaga’s most iconic colors, appearing in logo backgrounds, packaging, and store designs. This industrial hue perfectly balances high fashion with streetwear influences.

Craftsmanship Details

The minimalist silhouette demands exceptional leather quality and craftsmanship. Both exterior and lining use flexible, glossy polished calfskin, meticulously reproducing the cardboard box’s folds and cut-outs. Artisans hand-paint the kraft paper-colored edges to highlight the contours.

Like an actual shoebox, the clutch features a flip-top closure with 7 hidden magnetic snaps that secure the bag whether placed horizontally or vertically – each opening feels like unwrapping a gift.

What Fits Inside?

The large Sneaker Box Clutch offers unparalleled capacity for a handheld bag, with interior space comparable to a storage box – you could literally use it as one at home.

Interior space

We comfortably fit an A5 notebook, iPad mini, Bluetooth headphones, wallet, phone, tissues, keys, cardholder, and makeup mirror with room to spare. While it’s perfect for making a statement, we recommend not overloading it for daily use.
