The latest colorway in Ato Matsumoto’s popular sneaker model teams him up with DJ Daruma, designer of Japanese label Roc Star. The kicks take some obvious influence from some early 90’s releases with neon pink accenting over a black backdrop. Retailing for ¥30,450 (Approx. $337 USD), the collabo project will see a release at Phenomenon Harajuku very soon.

    Nice, but if I’m going to pay $300 I want a different design, Ato’s been recycling this design since 07.

    THOSE SHOES ARE SICK. I WOULD GET THEM, BUT IN DIFFERENT COLOR. IM NOT FEELING THE PINK. MAYBE : BLK/BLUE, BLK/WHITE, ALL WHITE, ALL BLK OR BLK/RED…OR MAYBE GREEN/WHITE….

    Flightpositie + Agassi + anything with straps + AJ1 sole + Dunk upper = Unoriginal and ridiculously bit!!

    way to steal a CW

    nice try with your ugly shoes.

    dope..but one strap too many as a whole..they need to have an alternate model that shows the kick without the toe strap..its a weak shoe to begin with, but that takes away from any design premise they could have thought to have..maybe its to hide that its a dunk in real life..i dunno

    Coalition Coming in 2009
    Ambassador OUT!!

    They have one strap too many. If the velcro on the toe was gone it would look much better.
