Oki-Ni adidas Tennis Hi by Josh Rubin
Oki-Ni and adidas have recreated the Tennis Hi, circa 1974. This new version is produced in dual layers of nylon webbing over a lemon peel weave and has full-grain leather overlays in optical white. Similar, yet way more aggressive than the Ginga and like a Stan Smith on acid, the shoe features dual branding of Oki-Ni and adidas on the in-sole and tongue.
Only 300 pairs were made. $166 at Oki-Ni.

adidas Y-3
Yohji Yamamoto's alliance with adidas on Y-3 is one of my all time favorite fashion collaborations. They recently launched their Spring/Summer ’05 campaign, and it’s everything you’d expect and more from Yamamoto. Quirky, clever, and some simply out there-- all Y-3 signature designs. You can view the line of men’s and women’s fashion, a horde of accessories, and some really great classic Yamamoto style...

Y3 by Yohji Yamomoto
In general, I find the Y3 line from Yohji Yamomoto a little over branded. The new web site, however, is fabulous! The impact comes from the large scale, full motion animation of models walking in place wearing each of the different looks. You can rotate the models to see all angles. Reading this as I write it, it sounds cheesy. Trust me, it's so...

Converse x Original Jams: Skidgrip Mid-Shoe
by Laura Neilson More than twenty years after their original collaboration, Converse is high-fiving with Original Jams once again for a small—but definitely noticeable—Spring '09 collection. To celebrate the collaboration-slash-reunion, Converse will debut an exact replica of its Original Jams Skidgrip mid-shoe.
