Axel Arigato New Flair Runner Combines Two Key Design Elements From Its Popular Daze and Genesis Models

Indeed, the new unisex sneaker silhouette is part of the company’s new spring 2027 collection and is set to arrive on Wednesday.

According to the Swedish company, the new shoe is “built to feel relaxed on the foot, with less foam inside, a lower sole, and a wider forefoot.” It also draws inspiration from two of the company’s existing sneakers. The panel comes from the Genesis Runner, passed through the asymmetric spirit of the Daze Runner, so the paneling sweeps across the upper and tilts.

The sculpted midsole is polyurethane, chosen because it resists creasing and keeps the lines as drawn, and it is made on tooling designed for this shoe alone. The tread is a playful take on retro runner soles, and in the forefoot it carries an abstract letter “A.”

Plus, the monochrome Bee Bird, the emblem Axel Arigato brought back in spring 2026 and adapted for this shoe, is debossed on the tongue tab and the heel, worked into the outsole, and appears on the underside of the custom sockliner.

Codesigned with Areté, a design studio in Amsterdam, the new Flair Runner will be available in 11 colorways, seven for men and four for women, spanning soft neutrals, blues, greens, and burgundy, alongside darker browns, blacks, and greys, most in mesh and leather and three of the men’s in suede.

“Our newly established, dynamic and more organic design language, successfully seen on our low-profile runner Daze, was the starting point for Flair,” Jens Werner, creative director of Axel Arigato, said in a statement.
