SNEAKER TIME!
After the success of last September’s ‘Oktoberfest’ adidas x Crooked Tongues Munchen, legendary shoe designer Markus Thaler (one of the minds behind the legendary ZX range) joined the project to offer his own unique ‘outdoors’ take on the cult silhouette.
A premium material mix, a new approach to panelling, covered tongue, D-Ring fastenings and a forefoot with duck boot design cues are bolstered by some eccentric detailing. As a Bavarian, Markus knows the
area’s aesthetic far better than we ever could, and he takes the upper of this late ‘70’s training shape into off-road, woodland territory, set on the familiar cup sole.
Limited to just 150 pairs exclusively from the Crooked Tongues store, the adidas x Crooked Tongues ‘VIP’ Munchen is on sale now via the Crooked Tongues online store.
SNEAKER TIME!
Just recently we showed you the two Spring 2009 colorways of the new Vans Vault Supercorsa. The premium perforated leather sneaker came in black and light green. The new summer colorways are more our thing, as the sneaker now comes in white and light brown, just perfect. Look out for these to release beginning of May.
Donald Duck...Just Lights Me Up
After previously releasing Mickey and Mini Mouse, A Bathing Ape has once again worked with Disney, this time on Donald Duck. The famous character comes in the form of a plush toy and features white and yellow camo patterns. Matching, Donald comes wrapped in a white camo pouch. The Bape x Disney Donald Duck Plush Toy is now available at Bape stores.
SNEAKER TIME!
Giving the old school Flight Lite a Blazer sole was one thing, but Nike completely flips the script with their Air Hoop Structure, fusing the classic Air Structure Triax ‘91 with a basketball platform. The kicks also feature slight qualities from the Jordan VI. A release for these bad boys is slated for November 2009 with this cool grey colorway set to be its first release.
