| Alife Chuck All Weather “RGB Pack” Posted: 22 Oct 2009 12:28 PM PDT  The Alife Chuck is a clean, smooth dress sneaker. The last few times we’ve seen releases for this silhouette, like the Fall 2009 line-up they’ve been in blacks, browns and tans, providing a more formal look than a traditional sneaker. The “RGB Pack,” which is available now, breaks that pattern, releasing three all-weather pairs in bright solid colors. Using completely suede uppers, this Chuck is available in blue, green and red. All three use matching soles, providing a completely monotone look. They also feature the standard Alife sock liner for additional comfort. Click here for pics of all three. | Read the rest of Alife Chuck All Weather “RGB Pack”

| High Snobiety x Ronnie Fieg x Asics Gel Lyte III Posted: 22 Oct 2009 10:28 AM PDT  Completing the trilogy with Asics and David Z is this High Snobiety and Ronnie Fieg Asics Gel Lyte III. The other two parts of this were the Culture Shoq collaboration and of course, our very own Gel Lyte III, which you’re going to need an eBay account to get at this point. From what we can see, Ronnie, who was involved in the entire trilogy design process, used a healthy dose of patent leather on the toe cap and for the eyestays. Navy perforated suede is used for the topside of the toe section, much like on our own version. The laces use two colors, mixing silver and blue. It looks like the navy suede continues along the side as well, filling the panel behind the Asics arches logo. If you slept on our collaboration, don’t make the same mistake again, and stay tuned for more information as it becomes available. | Read the rest of High Snobiety x Ronnie Fieg x Asics Gel Lyte III
