Reebok Classic Leather gets a dose of hip-hop, all the way from Poland. Polish rapper Fisz has put his creativity to a different use and come up with this rather colorful job. The print on the toe area is more like a tribute to reggae, in my opinion.

It’s basically black suede that sits on a gum outsole and features eye-pleasing geometric patterns mainly in purple and orange. The branding appears in white. The back side of the sneaker carries an embroidered likeness of the rapper. No word yet on release date in the U.S or pricing, stay tuned.We’ll keep you posted.

The PUMA Pigeon Suede by Staple is going to be available from next week onward. Designed by Jeff Staple, the sneakers made news some time back when a little bit of information was released, ostensibly to pique public interest. This particular iteration of the Puma Clyde is limited to only 500 pairs globally. So, if you like what you see in the images, you need to be sharp.

These sneakers are handcrafted in Japan. Check out the two-tone shade of grey, the creative use of orange in the branding, and the very realistic pigeon on the side. The insole and outsole have been treated to infrared colors.

Taking its cues from the Air Jordan 7 “Hare”, this Nike Air Force 1 Bespoke uses off-white suede accents that set off a white leather overlay. Keeping the theme intact, the special-made sneakers implements minimal green and orange coloring to set up red being used as the major accent color. Unfortunately, these are a one of one, but this bespoke could possibly encourage Nike to create a similar colorway. Let us know your thoughts on this shoe in the comments.
