Adidas Eco by Josh Rubin
Among other finds in Rio were these simple, sensible, summer kicks. From what I could gather, they're made from hemp and have recycled rubber soles. I can't find any info about these through Adidas or the sneaker sites, so if you know their story please share.

Reserva Pop-Up Shop at São Paulo Eastpak
The beach is at least an hour and a half away, but Rio de Janeiro men's brand, Reserva, is bringing the easy-breezy life of being close to the ocean to São Paulo with their pop-up store in the back of the Eastpak store. The clothing mix is surfwear-inspired with a bit of Ivy League thrown in, much akin to Hollister. The designers picked up...

Oestudio Sneakers
Over the course of São Paulo's recent fashion week the name Oestudio kept showing up on t-shirt tags, runways and at Surface To Air's new store. The boutique carries Oestudio's hi- and lo-tops that all balance a youthful look with stylish detailing and a distinctly Brazilian flair. Well thought out design, like thin round laces and nearly double the amount of eyelets on most...

Alexandre Herchcovitch Sneakers
At the Alexandre Herchcovitch show at São Paulo Fashion Week, the diamond patterns, gold and fluorescent hues he used on sneakers caught my eye. After the successful show, while everyone swarmed the designer backstage, I was able to get a few pics of the hi-tops as they were being put away (click images for detail). While I don't know much about them except that...
