Limited Edition Adidas Samba MTL


The lowly samba shoe, formerly found only on soccer fields long ago, has come a long way since it first rolled off the assembly line in Southeast Asian sweatshops. What makes this Samba unique are the metallic gold accents and purple sole to contrast with the black, cracked leather upper. These joints are limited edition and currently only available in Japan. It is likely that a few pairs will make it onto eBay or to a few select boutiques stateside, but it might take another week or two. Available for about $110 USD, these limited editions are quite a steal.

Patta x Pro-Keds Royal Hi & Lo

Patta is a very solid brand based out of that fabled city of hookers and weed, Amsterdam. The brand has been around for 5 years now and has teamed up with Pro-Keds to release the Royal Hi and Royal Lo shoes. The shoe is made of all white pebbled leather and a gum sole for contrast. These are set for release on July 25th at their flagship store in Amsterdam. You will probably be unable to find these until at least a few days/weeks after their in store release (unless you fly over there on the 25th). Also, each shoe comes with its own canvas grocery bag.
