Despite a wealth of co-branded releases that have released through the Gectic stable over the years, the popular Japanese brand has gone solo in their most recent footwear project, the Pile. With warm summer colors in mind, the classic court shoe profile is done up in terry cloth uppers. The heel features the tag “Yop’s” in reference to hectic founder Yoshifumi Egawa’s nickname. Available now at eproze.
Earlier this year saw a collaboration between Hectic x Stussy in the creation of a New Balance CM670 pack. Two new styles are set to hit later this month featuring a muted gray suede and aqua/purple highlights. The CM670 has been a most recent medium chosen by traditional collaboration partners Hectic and Stussy and could yield more of the same variety to compliment their current line of MT580s.

Three colorful MT580’s will be released each representing a collaboration with either Stussy, Hectic or UNDFTD.
