Vans Lacey by Tim Yu
A hybrid slip-on/boat shoe, you get the best of both worlds with the Vans Lacey. Although I haven't yet tried them on, they look super-comfortable like most Vans. The easy-on and off is always a big attraction and I like that if I need more security, the wrap-around laces can be tightened up with a quick pull—for outrunning the fuzz or what have you. They're based on a vintage Vans model and come in a few different colorways. I like the way the black-on-black has an understated appeal that subtly plays-up the offbeat detail.
The Black Vans Lacey is available at Beams for ¥8,190 or check your local retailer.

Newton Motion AW
Newton's sneakers are as close to running barefoot as a person can get. Much has been made recently of returning to the elemental movement of walking or running. The logic suggests that our bodily structure is best served when motion is as close as possible to its primal state (i.e. running while barefoot). Newton attempts to fulfill this role for casual and professional runners,...

Nike Zoom Kobe IV
This past weekend at a Los Angeles High School, Kobe Bryant unveiled his fourth signature sneaker in the Nike Zoom collection. What sets this shoe apart from the rest is the fact that it's a newly designed low-top for use in a sport traditionally played in high-tops. Although high-tops help prevent ankle sprains, the fact is most ankle support comes from a sturdy base...
