John Schofield x adidas Tobacco John Schofield x adidas Tobacco This UK-based terrace classic lovin’ mad man doesn’t seem to be letting up anytime soon. After the custom jobs we’ve already featured he’s back in action with a bloody brilliant pair for an aggressively successful (in the sense of grail hunting), young trainer collector who’s also living in England. Instead of sitting down with John... PUMA Black Bird PUMA Black Bird This mysterious vintage PUMA model is commonly known as the Black Bird. We’ve heard guesses to it being a Pele Brasil as well, however the modern releases of the Pele Brasil look a bit different. Similar in shape, cut, and style to some of PUMA’s other vintage silhouettes it’s the colorway that really sets this... PUMA Clyde Brogue Oki Ni PUMA Clyde Brogue Oki Ni Now these are something of an oddity, a novelty item perhaps. I personally have never found the occasion to wear these but I love having them in my collection. They’re the Loakes’ Clyde from the Oki-Ni “Bespoke” collection that dropped in 2007. For those unfamiliar with Loakes, they’re the company who, for the last 130... PUMA States x Shadow Society “Crystal Grey” PUMA States x Shadow Society “Crystal Grey” Another famous PUMA silhouette gets the Shadow Society treatment in this August 2011 release. The States model is one that most Puma aficionados will recognize with ease, and after a four year absence the States came back as a part of the Shadow Society pack. Cousin to the Suede and the Clyde, the States share... PUMA Clyde (Made in Yugoslavia) PUMA Clyde (Made in Yugoslavia) What I’m reviewing today is probably the most prized possession of my PUMA Suede and Clyde collection. Not a new release by any means, but a genuine OG vintage model, made in Yugoslavia, straight out of the green box. There’s a story behind this shoe, for me at least. When I was thirteen or fourteen... Kara Messina x adidas Pro Shell Kara Messina x adidas Pro Shell The adidas Originals Consortium series has always been about collaborations and making friendships, but with the Spring and Summer 2012 Your Story pack, the three stripes have taken it one step further to celebrate the 20th Olympic games that their footwear will be worn in. Nine designers were chosen, each from an Olympic city around... Shaniqwa Jarvis x adidas ZX 500 Shaniqwa Jarvis x adidas ZX 500 If Quote’s tribute to the OG ZX 500 wasn’t enough to satisfy your thirst for Olympic-inspired Consortium series runners in 2012 then the lush blue suede remake from talented portrait photographer Shaniqwa Jarvis should help to quench your desires. Premium suede, dark brown leather accents, and some of the most creative lace detailing we seen... Viktor Tell x adidas Matchplay Viktor Tell x adidas Matchplay On first glance the adidas Matchplay by Viktor Tell is probably the most calmed design of the entire lot – with the exception of the adidas BC – but in truth it hides its hype on the inside as though it were an excited child sitting patiently disguised in adult’s clothing. Viktor is quoted to... adidas BC MMXII adidas BC MMXII Traditionally, the adidas Consortium series has always been about collaborations – whether that be with stockists, designers, or other brand names – so it’s a curious choice (and certainly no mistake) that adidas Originals has assumed the role of dreaming up the tenth (and final) pair from their Your Story pack. It’s important to quickly...
