Dior Pumps Up the Volume With New B35 NXXT Sneaker That Puts Contemporary Spin on Brand Heritage
Dior has pulled the curtain on its latest sneaker, the B35 NXXT, a voluminous modern style presented as part of the brand’s summer 2025 collection.
Fusing heritage and innovation, the French luxury brand says that the shoe communicates “the contemporary essence of the house.” The chunky openwork sole showcases the Dior Cannage motif, and mesh is featured along the upper. While the sole is voluminous, it is also designed to be lightweight.

Graphic curves and the “Dior” signature, created with the utilization of a high-frequency process, are incorporated in the design as well. “47” is emblazoned on the toe of the sneakers, in a nod to the date Feb. 12, 1947, when Christian Dior presented his first fashion show. Additionally, Dior B35 patches are featured on the tongue and heel counter of the shoe.
The sneaker comes in multiple colorways ranging from black to white to options with vibrant pops of color. Interpretations in beige and brown raffia are also available. The B35 NXXT sneaker is marked a price point of $1,300.
