You may have heard of the footwear label Cause from their projects with Stussy or recently, CLS. This rising footwear brand from Japan has just teamed up with Seattle based label, Maiden Noir, for an upcoming collabo sneaker. Maiden Noir as you know is known for their darker themed clothes so this sneaker has naturally been designed in the same manner. Only a selected few Maiden Noir retailers will be getting these in at the end of the month. They will be retailing for $175.

We rarely talk about hi fashion brands like English brand Alexander McQueen here on HYPEBEAST. Sometimes we talk about their collaboration with Puma but that’s not too often. However, this new t-shirt is definitely worth a mention. Alexander McQueen has just released a new t-shirt which features their signature skull motif as a print on the front.
