Kicks Flow: Jeremy Scott x adidas - Wings 2.0



ANTLIFE ACADEMY PRESENTS:

YESSUH!!

Recently seen flashin' on the feet o' Lil' Wayne, the JS Wings 2.0 is set to return in a glitzy gold colourway. Unlike the original JS Wings which is a morphed Metro Attitude, version 2.0 is based on the 80s Conductor boot with the wings pointing to the rear rather than sprouting from the laces. Look out for them soon at Styles Tokyo. These are a must-cop, so make sure to grab a quick pair, while you still can.

Kicks Flow: Converse Addict Chuck Taylor All Star – The Anatomy






Kinda dope..

Upon the release of the Converse Addict collection, it left many people scratching their head as to what constitutes a Chuck Taylor All Star that ranges in the triple digits for retail price. Given the opportunity, we took a more in-depth look into the construction and characteristics of a sneaker that has endured generation upon generation of fans. The goal of the Addict line was to recreate some of the sensibilities of the Chuck Taylor circa 1960s with some new age improvements.

A Vibram outsole provides a non-slip rubber with enhanced wear resistance. A Poron insert in the bed of the sneaker provides additional cushioning with a further Outlast liner for greater comfort relative to heat and temperature. Aside from that we also see a slightly different ’60s silhouette, upgraded stitching and branding on the heel dating back almost 50 years. These are the makings of the Converse Addict Chuck Taylor All Star.
