The News In Shoes: Mobb Deep x Timberland, Le Coq Sportif Gets Rare and Vans Head South of the Border

Just step.

September 16, 2014

Here's a sampling of some of the kicks and things that caught our eye this week. Autumn hues, cool collabs, and a clutch that's guaranteed to turn more heads than whatever you've got on your feet right now. 

Aussie boutique Highs And Lows collabed with Le Coq Sportif for a pair of gorgeous runners inspired by black and white swans. They're as rare as the birds they exalt--after a limited in-store only release last month, they've popped up in a few of our favorite shops, but your best bet is Ebay if you're not willing to go hunt in the wild.

Timberland's new Level 61 boot drops just in time to curb-stomp through the city this winter. There are reports that these a collaboration with Mobb Deep, but then why is there intergalactic dubstep playing in the teaser vid? Either way, these Timbs are definitely worthy of our fall footwear rotation. 

You can now pre-order the sneaker-inspired digs Alexander Wang debuted at New York Fashion Week, including this clutch with air bubbles, Air Jordan's signature elephant print details and, sadly, no laces.

Vault by Vans x Huichol Capsule

Vans' latest limited drop channels Mexico's indigenous Huichol culture. Each of the 360 pairs available were embroidered by hand, and while we don't always bite the "wearable art" bait, the pendant on the back of those Sk8-His would look great crushing autumn foliage.
