Converse x Nigel Cabourn Chuck Taylor 1970 Hi “Ventile”

20140319-142654.jpg

Today we get a first look at the next collaboration between Converse and heritage brand Nigel Cabourn. After previously having done the Chuck Taylor All Star Bosey and the Plimsole, Nigel Cabourn worked on the Chuck Taylor 1970 this time. Giving it a white upper and red details and branding, the look is clean and perfect for the summer months that lie ahead. The designer used Ventile fabric for the upper, making the shoes weatherproof, which is a subtle, yet exciting feature on these. The sneakers will release at select retailers on March 21.

nike tiffany dunk hi | the style raconteur

 

The saga of the Nike SB Dunk High “Tiffany” continues. Further suggesting that an actual retail release is on the way is the fact that there’s a sample floating around there that’s definitely legit. The Nike SB Dunk High “Tiffany” of course features the Diamond Supply Co. logo on its tongue tag, one that we’d be surprised if they could get away with using if this wasn’t technically a collab release. Continue reading for the best images yet on the “Tiffany” SB Dunk High and then check out the chance to buy them from lilshk54321 on eBay.

The famed BRED colorway of the Air Jordan 1 High that put Michael Jordan in violation of the 1985 NBA dress code is back this year. The kicks racked up fines and publicity for MJ and Nike and earned the silhouette and color palette a place in NBA history. The return of the OG colorway is part of Nike’s OG series that nixes the retro Jumpman style for the original Nike Air on the tongue and outsole. Check out the images and look out for the kicks to release on the 28th of December. We will keep posted with a release date confirmation as the release draws near.
