Reebok LX 8500

tim at Crooked Tongues likes this shoe and he has every reason to because they are so damn hot. Usually, I’m not a big Reebok fan other than the original Pumps but this Reebok LX 8500 has made me change my mind. “The LX-8500 is part of Reebok’s ’80s runner collection, originally part of the JPE series of Japanese limited edition releases, and this colourway will be the first UK release. Coming out around September 2005, this is the first in the series and incorporates snakeskin patterns, and 5 different materials including 3M reflective panels.” Image: Crooked Tongues

Porter x Essential Design Patch Work Denim Wallet

Porter x Essential Design Patch Work Denim Wallet

Brand new collaboration from Porter x Essential Design is this Patch Work Denim Wallet. This denim wallet uses vintage style denim on the outside giving it a bad boy look. However on the inside is the totally different story. The inside is in a beige color and has clean lines giving it a very modern look which I like. The Porter logo is on the outside of the wallet as usual while a Essential Design logo sits on the inside. Image: Ace-Web

Nike Considered Generation II

Nike Considered Generation II

Crooked Tongues has some new pictures of the Nike Considered Generation II. Personally I didn’t like the first Nike Considered much but hopefully these Generation II will be better. The design of the Nike Considered Generation II is inspired by the Nike Blazer and Dunk. Combine it with the Nike Free soles and we get the Generation II. This interesting combination comes in both a high and low version. Image: Crooked Tongues
