SOPHNET. x visvim FBT – Isetan Osaka Exclusive

Sat, 03 Dec 2011 01:02:56 +0000

SOPHNET. and visvim have linked up to produce an exclusive colorway of the luxurious FBT.

The kicks sport a tonal suede upper with the signature moccasin footwrap. The upper sits atop a new vulcanized midsole, effectively giving the shoe a more rugged and classic look.

Available exclusively via Japanese department store Isetan in Osaka, you’ll have hit up your foreign connects in order to pick these up (if you have about $700 to spare).

Visvim – Abarth Moc Denim Folk | Available Now

Emily — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 00:05:23 +0000

This season, Visvim continues to do what it does best and provides us with top quality footwear that never disappoints. Taking a break from its heavily Native American inspired themes, the Japanese label has meticulously crafted a pair of loafer sneakers, Abarth Moc Denim Folk, that is dressy without being pretentious and tired, casual without being unkempt and lazy. The comfortable loafers are crafted from a denim upper and comes in two different shades, a lighter grey-ish version and a darker, more somber colorway. Both shoes sit atop off-white soles with black piping close to the hell for an interesting look. The denim upper is lined with leather and its seams are closed off with black leather piping matching the strap-metal hardware detail on the front. Suit up or dress down, these kicks are versatile and should instantly put a jolt to your outfit. The shoes are now available at Osaka’s NOS.

adidas Originals x Madsaki – Samba | Now Available @ Sneakersnstuff

Wed, 11 Nov 2009 23:00:33 +0000

As a part of the adidas Originals Five-Two-3 City Pack, adidas Originals collaborated with Japanese artist, Madsaki, on a pair of adidas Samba’s. Madsaki who was from Osaka, Japan but grew up in New York City, spent a part of his life as a bike messenger in New York City. The Samba at the time when Madsaki was riding around Manhattan was the perfect shoe because of how they fit into the toe clips of the bikes. Hence the Samba was the shoe of choice when Madsaki was asked to participate in the adidas Originals Five-Two-3 City Pack artist collaboration sneaker. The shoe itself comes in the classic Samba colorway of Black with hints of White, while the materials used are a lot more premium, including a waterproof snake skin like material on the upper. These are available now at select adidas Originals’ retailers including Sneakersnstuff.

adidas Five Two-3 “City Artist” Collection

SpursMetsJets619 — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 07:28:12 +0000

We kicked off November, partially, by bringing you a closer look at the adidas Five Two-3 Plant Pack. Now, we have another collection from the adidas Five Two-3 campaign known as the “City Artist” collection because a specific artist was chosen to represent their city through the designing of an adidas shoe. Dalek is representing NYC with a pair of Forum mids, London’s Pochoir worked on the Superstar, and France’s KRSN applied his style onto the Stan Smith. Finally, Madsaki represents for Osaka, Japan through the Samba and Fasko does it through the Nizza high. Certain retailers already have all five of these sneakers in stock, so check out pix of the rest of the collection after the jump before deciding whether or not to try and purchase one or all of them.

The Nike x Coraline Dunk Movie Props Edition, which we were fortunate to receive a pair of (Thanks Rob & WK12), was not the most limited version of the special collaborative shoe between Nike and Coraline, instead it’s this new Wooden Box Edition of the collaboration Dunk that is in fact the most limited version of the shoe. This particular edition of the Coraline Dunk was given to 15 of the world’s best sneaker boutiques including UNDFTD and comes packaged in a special wooden box that needs a key to open. via Eddie Cruz
