Diesel S-Nentish Mid-Top Zip Sneakers in Red Suede/Nylon
Diesel · Clothing & Accessories > Footwear > Men's Sneakers
Era / Decade
Mid-2010s to Early 2020s based on the 'Only the Brave' mohawk tongue logo and side zip design style.
Material
Upper is a mix of genuine suede leather overlays and high-density technical nylon; rubber cupsole; metal hardware branding and side zipper.
Condition
Very Good. The suede shows some light tracking but retains deep color. Midsoles are clean with minimal yellowing. Laces appear original and bright.
Demand Level
Moderate. Diesel has a strong niche following in the streetwear community, though red footwear is currently a specific 'statement' taste compared to muted tones.
Resale Value
Estimated Resale Value
$65.00 (Low) - $85.00 (Mid) - $115.00 (High for pristine condition with original box).
Estimated Retail Value
$210.00 - $245.00 depending on the specific retail boutique.
Comparable Sales
Similar S-Nentish and S-Urbion models consistently sell between $70 and $100 on Grailed and Poshmark. Pristine red editions often fetch a slight premium due to their bold look.
Description
Bold red Diesel mid-top sneakers featuring a mixed-media construction of premium suede and durable nylon. Design includes the iconic 'Mohawk' logo on the tongue, embossed metal side branding, and a functional side zipper for easy entry. Contrasting off-white laces and a crisp rubber midsole provide a classic 'Y2K meets modern streetwear' aesthetic.
Key Features
Functional side-zip design, high-visibility 'Power Red' colorway, signature 'Only the Brave' mohawk branding, and high-quality mixed-material construction.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. Correct metal hardware font for the 'Diesel' side plate; deep, crisp embossing on the tongue logo; consistent stitching along the nylon panels; branded midsole. Red flags would be sloppy gluing or a 'plastic' smell.
Flaws to Note
Minor nap wear on the suede toe box; very slight indigo dye transfer possible at the heel which is common for Diesel shoes worn with denim; no major scuffs or sole drag visible in photo.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Poshmark, Grailed, and Depop are the best fits for Diesel's 'Euro-streetwear' vibe. eBay is a solid secondary option for reaching international buyers.
Selling Tips
Use keywords like 'Gorpcore,' 'Y2K,' 'Indie Sleaze,' and 'Industrial.' Mention the side zipper as a utility feature. Use a suede brush to lift the nap before photographing to make the red 'pop.' Always include a photo of the size tag and the outsole to show the tread condition.
