As you may or may not know, Fila is making an attempt to get back in the game. The Grant Hill’s were released late in 2008 under the Fila Ninety6 name to honor the year in which they originally released, and since then the company has been releasing model after model with hopes to grasp your attention sooner or later. Since nobody else really seems to be doing some, with obvious reason we’re sure, we’d figure we’d give Fila a little plug here with their newly release Bull Strap Chukka.

The Bull Strap Chukka is Fila’s attempt to get in on the chukka market. To debut the chukka Fila dropped two colorways, a brown model and a black model. The both feature a combination of leather, suede and nubuck throughout the upper with a basket weave embossed filabuck toe-box and heel. Across the leather vamp panels is a wide hook-and-loop strap with metal Fila logo hardware on the strap and on the side of the collar.

Can’t say I’m the biggest fan, but it’s unique none the less and I gotta applaud Fila for not ripping off the design of another company with this one. If your interested in the Bull Strap Chukka from Fila you can get em now in black or brown at DrJays.

Starting off the year with a fresh collabo Atmos reached out to Clarks to put together a pack of Wallabee boots known as the Plaid Wool Pack. The two-pack of Wallabee’s consists of a red/black model and a green/black model which both feature a premium black suede one piece tongue & toe-box with plaid wool uppers mounted on the classic crepe sole.  The lining on both is constructed of fine leather with a suede heel grip.  Bright color-popped footbeds, five-point star brass eyelets and contrast stitching provide attention to detail and give a strong sense of distinction.  The sneakers are highly limited and only available at a handful of distributors around the globe, with Hanon being the only spot in Europe to get em.

Studs on sneakers just never really worked for my personal taste. Actually, they never really worked on much of anything for guys in my opinion. This is cause i’m not into that whole old-school punk rock look with the studded boots and belts and jackets and the whole 9. For those of you who are though companies such as Nike have tried to cater to your taste with designs featuring the use of studs and now ato Matsumoto gives us their own spin on a studded model with the release of this new ato cowhide boot. The shoes, boots, or whatever you wanna call them feature a completely black upper with with round studs around the toe and on the tongue, and square studs on the straps and around the heel.

Select Japanese retailers such as Rowgage have the studded ato Cowhide boots in stock now. A closer look can be found by following the jump.
