Posted in Hot Kicks on August 30, 2008 by gumsole

As a follow-up to recent looks at the Carhartt x Vans Half-Cab | Chukka, here’s the unveiling of the final product. Differing from our most recent preview, the Half-Cabs and Chukkas lose the reddish pipping along the sole restricting the bright color only to the bottom of the sole. Each pair also comes packaged with a special dust bag utilizing the same Carhartt brown that has become synonymous with the workwear brand. This collaboration is the culmination of years of support both brands have given each other through various events and a mutual respect the brands have for each others creative direction. The shoes release on September 3rd at Carhartt flagship stores around Europe in the following cities, London, Paris, Lyon, Toulouse, Madrid, Barcelona, Lisbon, Berlin, Cologne, Frankfurt, Milan, Rome, Amsterdam, Copenhagen and Zurich.

Keeping a consistent design approach as usual, the rest of the collection features awesome work from the team of Mike Giant and Joshy D. Fall 2008 is now available at the REBEL8 online store with the full collection after the jump.

Poorman’s Trash

Posted in Hot Kicks on August 30, 2008 by gumsole

In UNDFTD’s latest collaboration with Converse, the popular sneaker boutique utilizes an MA-1 flight jacket concept as they adopt it for use on the Poorman’s Weapon. The slimmer profile of the Poorman’s Weapon is met with some interesting features that marked the MA-1 jacket such as a satin upper and interchangeable Velcro patches. The Velcro patches itself allowed for quick disposable in the event pilots were captured behind enemy lines. Rounding out the release is the use of an orange liner much like the jackets themselves.
