They have a large database of their items at the XLarge Japan website which is now also available in English. More pictures after the jump.

The new sample is of the Court Force Low drawing elements from the Air Max 93’s. These kicks use the OG colorway of aqua blue, black, and white from the early Air Max 93’s. At first glance these kicks seems to be mainly made of mesh however if you take a closer look, you’ll see a sport material similar to spandex which makes up the newly designed tongue and cushion area. Expect these to be available in the summer months starting in June.

It’s always interesting to see brands cross genres to team up with people from other industries. This time, Onitsuka Tiger collaborated with Mini on the R55 to celebrate the release of the Mini Clubman. The shoes come in three colorways: white, silver, and dark blue. Various design elements of the shoes are inspired by the design of the Clubman itself, with the front of the shoes made to look like the grille of the car or the rounded heel shaped for the pedaling movement while driving the car. This is definitely a good collaboration for both parties. Now available at Ripe.
