The Vans Cab Lite in grey is a perfect sneaker to step out in on autumnal days; £63.00 gets you a pair and this grey, most assuredly will help you drive away the blues. The canvas and suede upper in two tones rests on waffle soles that carry the “S” badge, as does the heel. Vans has used pro-vulc lightweight single-wrap construction for the sneakers.

Black synthetic rope laces flecked with white provide contrast to the grey. Available now, take a look at the images.

The New Balance WP996 in Ruby Wine colors comes across as something so very different from regular New Balance silhouettes; it has been around from 1988 but hasn’t exactly set the Thames or the Potomac on fire. This silhouette, a womens’ exclusive, looks great with the red upper sitting on a brown sole. It’s a safe color combination, but still needs to be executed correctly; the WP996 pulls it off with aplomb.

A synthetic multi-colored ribbon weaves its way below the collar. Available in Japan for the equivalent of $100. No word as yet on a U.S release. Stay tuned and we’ll keep you informed.

All signs point to a LeBron line retro in the near future, but where do they begin? While the Zoom Generation seems like an obvious pick, we’re suggesting a different starting point. The Nike Zoom LeBron IV is calling for a comeback. Foamposite build and flexible design are on trend with today’s favorites, with composition characteristics making for a strong possibility of a ‘true to original form’ retro. While there are a host of worthy colorways, the “Dunkman” makes the most since. It’s elusive nature mirrors the energy colorways that brought the LeBron line back, while it’s color story still showcases nostalgia. Why wait, Nike? Bring ‘em back!
