Onitsuka Tiger has collaborated with Mini To create a special edition sneaker. This is to commemorate the release of their Mini Clubman. This set has 3 colorways; black, beige and brown. Mini has its own traditional logo that looks like a pair of metal wings. This logo is fixed on the back heel. This R55 pack has been released at Mita web store. Each pair has a price tag in the range of ¥ 13, 500 – 16,800.
The beige sneaker looks good with its perforated shoe upper. The trimmings have jagged edges and give the effect of looking like a lace trimming. The pattern of organized, horizontal perforations also makes the shoe look a little feminine. At the heel, there is an accent using a crossing of “lace” trimmings. The lower part of the heel has a different pattern of perforations. Along the side of the shoe, there are 4 interlocking stripes. These make the pattern look interesting. For this beige colored pair, the dark colored black stripes look severe against the background of the beige. However, I choose this pair as the best choice out of the three pairs because I prefer to see the detailed pattern of accents and different material on the shoe upper. I am unable to see the intricate designs on the dark brown and black shoes in this pack because of the dark colors.
