Nike Air Macropus Lite QS

macropus-3

Fresh from Beaverton, these Nike sneakers are somewhat of a deviancy from all other Nike kinds as some experts would opine. Released for the Winter collection, this pair features purple suede and hemp in Mexican “Zarape” blanket pattern for the upper. The same pattern is also used in the heel tab while the sole has a tan and brown colorway. Another unique feature would be the brown liner with a criss-crossing embroidery. Only Nike would think of that! The laces are inspired by boat shoe laces with the square, brown leather it uses.

This limited edition Quickstrike is available for $170.

Customize me: Nike x Yoa Customs Edward Scissorhands


edwardscissohands-5-530x397

I personally thought this was brilliant! I have long been a fan of Tim Burton and Johnny Depp’s collaborations and seeing these just blew me away. Amazing!

I found this customized pair over at YoaKustoms. Obviously, the artist was inspired by the film and therefore went to incorporate these in his sneakers. Edward Scissorhands’ portrait looked striking but disturbing as well. Anyone familiar with the movie would say there is an eerie accuracy here that is brilliant but at the same time disconcerting because of the deep scars that resulted from Edward’s own disability. The tongue tag features a yellow butterfly which was an ubiquitous element in the movie posters.

Louis Vuitton Latest New Color Sneaker

1243995342pg9leftjpg

Louis Vuitton’s newest released sneaker comes in brown, dark old rose and dark brown colorway. Who would have thought that this fashion company will also house fashionable sneakers nowadays? The company started small in 1854 catering French aristocrats in making suitcases.

LV’s suitcase business became a top line brand in France making way to get their name bigger in the fashion industry in the mid 20th century. Since the fashion industry has also influenced big companies in the footware industry, Luis Vuitton tested its luck and made its own luxury athletic footwear.

Being familiar with its distinctive LV pattern on its entire products, it is refreshing to see its newest released luxury footware design where its logo is only marked on the side panel of the sneakers’ midsole.
