Nike displays their growth from oxygen based cushioning to out of this world comfort on the Lunar Force 1. Using the same silhouette as the infamous Air Force 1, this time capsule kick revamps the basketball classic by implementing a Lunar sole. Gradient detail and glossy branding add flash to this upcoming model, with release date unknown at this time.

Just want to buy a pair of Vans California Chukka “Guate” right now? Vans California Chukka “Guate”.

The Vans California Chukka Guate boots are coming this October. As the name suggests these are chukkas and the design inspiration comes from the traditional South American guate weaving techniques. The company had released another guate-based collection in June. These kicks, however, carry a different weave combination. 

The “Guate” features a grey suede upper and a white midsole with a black stripe circumventing the body. The classic three pairs of eyelets are present, without any metal on them. The ankle collars are cushioned for extra comfort or maybe to absorb the pain of a whack from a polo stick should you decide to play for a chukker or two wearing these chukkas!

Just want to buy a pair of Android Homme Propulsion 1.5 – “Navajo” Pack right now? Android Homme Propulsion 1.5 – “Navajo” Pack.

The new Android Homme Propulsion 1.5 Navajo pack is out and features two new iterations in dark tan and navy; as the name suggests these high tops are a tribute to the Navajo culture, the intrepid independent people that lived and still live on the plains of Southwestern United States.

The uppers on these kicks are made from premium suede and very clearly echo traditional Indian art motifs; these shoes could be classed as veritable collectors items and contain premium details such as leather insole, waxed laces and an ankle collar thickened with extra padding. One design features a gum rubber sole unit and the other has a white midsole.
