Y-3 "Nice to Meet You" Sneaker by Ami Kealoha
We love New York, everybody loves New York, but the latest to proclaim it is Yohji Yamamoto with this limited-edition Y-3 shoe that inaugurates the new Y-3 store opening in Manhattan today. Made using Japanese denim from Yamamoto's fabric atelier, we're digging the futuristic look and who can resist the charm of the title, "Nice to Meet You," printed on the insole? Only 50 pairs are out there, retailing for $500 exclusively at the new store. Get thee to the Meatpacking!

Vintage Leather Jacket Chucks
Converse's latest drop to celebrate their 100th is a lesson in how to make a good thing better. Made out of vintage leather jackets, the leather has that greasy worn-in feel and plenty of unique details. We also like the patchwork construction and the incorporation of the black anodized zipper as a design element along the tongue. Waxed cotton laces complete the look, as...
