Lacoste Missouri ‘One Piece’

Joe — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 21:54:15 +0000

Taking the Missouri and giving it a brand new twist Lacoste presents the Missouri One Piece. As the name clearly states, unlike the regular Lacoste Missouri, or any sneaker for that matter, these use one solid piece of leather throughout the entire upper with fading dots which from afar almost make the upper appear perforated. To give off the illusion that the sneakers are constructed from numerous panel the usual stitching patterns have been incorporated into the design. To debut the Missouri ‘One Piece’ Lacoste has released three colorways; blue, purple and silver, all of which are available now at select Lacoste retailers such as Flauge.

The latest company to put their own spin on a Gucci inspired colorway is Creative Recreation with this ‘Gucci Pack’ consisting of a Dicoco hi and low top models. Each of the two sneakers sport your usual Gucci-esque colorway with black leather on the toe and heel, black mesh around the ankle and on a portion of the side panels with green and red nubuck wrapping up the rest of the upper. Both shoes also have a white midsole with red stitching and a black outsole. Is the Gucci theme getting a little carried away or can you never get enough of em?

Tomorrow all over the nation Trekkies will unite as they all visit their local music/video retailers to pick up the most recent chapter in the Star Trek saga to be released on DVD. To coincide with the DVD release the folks over at Star Trek reached out to Jeff Staple and Airwalk to have them design a few Airwalk Terrain’s. If you recall back in May 2008 they released a Silver Enterprise Edition of the Airwalk Terrain which was sold exclusively through Reed Space.

For the latest collection Jeff Staple and Airwalk put together three colorways of the Terrain which happen to be inspired by the Star Trek uniforms. You have “Engineering” Red, “Command” Gold and “Science” Blue. Each of the tree shoes feature a few Star Trek delta shield logos as well, one of the back, another on the front and a third on the tongue. Unlike the Silver Enterprise Edition neither of the three shoes include Star Trek branding on the tongue.

The red and blue versions are available now at both Reed Space and select Payless retailers while the gold version is only available as an online exclusive through Reed Space. Click here now to check out more detailed photos of all three.

Mecca ‘High Rider’

Joe — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 21:08:17 +0000

If you’ve been following along you know by now that Mecca released a new footwear collection in a bid to try and gain back some of the popularity they had years ago when they were running the streetwear industry with brands like Enyce and PNB Nation. We have already showed you two models which the company has released and now we are following up with a third.

Here we have what is known as the Mecca High Rider. The silhouette of the sneaker is pretty much the same as the other two we previously showed you, with a few differences here and there to set them apart from each other. For starters the paneling is laid out a little bit differently to make the sneakers appear different when in reality its really just the same. Then theres the addition of a strap across the lower section of the lace panel which has Mecca embossed across it. The Mecca ‘M’ logo appears on the tongue of the sneakers, as it does on the heel along with embossed print of Mecca USA.

Looking to gain a little more attention FILA has now teamed up with MACKDADDY to released the FILA Mack Squad.

The MACKDADDY x FILA Mack Squad is shown here using a completely neon blue colorway with an upper constructed from mostly patent leather. Across the side of the upper towards the heel of the sneakers theres fur material which not only acts as lace eyelets but also makes out the letter M for MACKDADDY, or Mack Squad. To go along with the all blue upper is an all blue sole unit and a pair of laces to match.

If your interested you can get the MACKDADDY x FILA Mack Square through the MACKDADDY online store now. Via: Hypebeast

Mecca Releases New Footwear Collection

Joe — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 21:11:03 +0000

Looking to capitalize off the footwear industry, Mecca, the company which since its start has only dealt with clothing, has reveled a brand new footwear collection. So far the company has released two silhouettes, the Mecca King and the Mecca Glide, both of which are obviously ripped designs and have very little differences between each other. The Mecca Glide is displayed on the left and is currently available in two colorways, purple and white, while the Mecca King is displayed on the right and currently available in white and black. Can everybody say Alife Everybody Mid Cross? Or just Alife Everybody in general. We can appreciate the fact new companies are looking to get into the footwear industry, as it could possibly bring new designs to the table, but when your giving us something we already have it sort of defeats the purpose.

Anyway, for those of you interested, click here to check out more pictures of both the Mecca King and the Mecca Glide in their available colorways and hit up DrJays now if you wanna get a pair.
