Off-White founder Virgil Abloh's high-top Louis Vuitton sneaker design that was unveiled last year is set to receive regional-exclusive releases starting today.

Announced by the designer on Twitter is a new black and grey-based colorway for his 408 Trainer, which features similar design elements from the Air Jordan 3. Differentiating each iteration is the premium luggage tag attached to the ankle strap as well as the accompanying laces.

Fans in Seoul will be able to pick up their pair today along with a New York release happening on Nov. 25. The majority of regional exclusive drops will arrive on Dec. 4 with the cities including Abloh's hometown city of Chicago, as well as Paris, Milan, London, Dubai, Shanghai, and Tokyo.

The regional-exclusive Louis Vuitton 408 Trainer is expected to be available on louisvuitton.com and at select Louis Vuitton stores for $1,480.
