The new sneaker of the season is the Santoni Easy Bounce

It is often difficult, almost impossible, to find the perfect shoe. A sneaker that manages to convey elegance, while also being functional and practical. It’s not just a matter of style, but of real usability: a shoe capable of accompanying you throughout the day, without weighing down either your feet or your look. From this concrete need comes Easy Bounce, the latest sneaker from Santoni, which builds on the legacy of the Easy line by taking it in a new direction — one that is more performance-oriented but still faithful to the formal cleanliness that defines the brand's identity. The first visual impact is that of an essential sneaker. The design is minimal, with no visible stitching and soft, continuous lines. Everything seems designed to stay in the background, but on closer inspection, every detail carries weight. From the compact, slightly chunky shape of the sole to the choice of materials — reversed suede, calf leather, and technical nylon inserts — which make the model versatile yet sophisticated. The suede, in particular, defines the upper part of the shoe well, giving it a velvety texture that breaks the rigidity of the “technical sneaker” concept.

Another key element of the project is the sole: made from ultra-lightweight rubber, it alternates white and orange sections to improve grip and shock absorption. Looking at the models in their various colorways — grey, sand, navy — it’s clear that Easy Bounce is designed to blend into different styles, from minimal casual to deconstructed formal. The white sole base, with its burnt orange accents, becomes a subtle yet distinctive identity marker — a technical signature that also works aesthetically. Santoni, with this sneaker, doesn’t chase trends or aim for loud statements. Easy Bounce is a deliberate attempt — and a successful one — to create a hybrid object that fits into the everyday lives of those seeking refined aesthetics without compromising comfort. And precisely because of this, it carves out an interesting space within the luxury performance segment, with a more functional and less theatrical approach.

The model is now available on santonishoes.com and in Santoni’s boutiques.
