An Unexpdcted Collabo: Raf Simons + Adidas

 

Wow...these fashion collaborations are getting really unpredictable, we would have never expected "Mr. Dior", Raf Simons to team up with Adidas. According to a press release, Simons designed a limited edition collection of men' sneakers for the athletic company, which debuted at his Paris menswear presentation this week. The collection {said to hit the selves in July} will include five models based on “signature Adidas high-end performance and running silhouettes” and will be available in three colorways.

 



Now we are wondering if a big Doir collaboration could be in the works anytime soon...hmm...

Nike x Liberty Running Trainer Collection

Sportswear powerhouse Nike has teamed up with Liberty London {once again} on a new collection of fashionably fresh footwear, designed to celebrate the culture of running. The collection of four iconic running sneakers {The Air Max 1, Nike Free Run +, Nike Lunar Glide and Nike Montreal} was given a full Liberty make-over. Each model got eye striking yellows and running track style patterns, sure to attract sneaker lovers searching for the next big thing.

The edgy Lotus Jazz Liberty print, created in 1965, represents the most innovative and contemporary design of sportswear on the shelves to date. The Lunarlon Dynamic support system {seen on the Nike Free Run +} enhanced cushioning and dynamic flywire represent the latest breakthrough technology integrated into Nike’s latest footwear.

These are great sneakers for performance and style...I want a pair!

Another Nike Collaboration

Nike has teamed up with French label A.P.C for a line of pared-down unisex sneakers. The Nike Dunk and Nike Air Max were given a minimalist make-under creating the perfect mix of sporty function and chic style.

“It’s all very classic looking, trainers [shoes] that don’t shout too loudly,” Jean Touitou {head of A.P.C} told WWD. “It will give people the opportunity to wear a trainer with a very chic coat. The reason we are not doing the trainers ourselves is because we don’t have the know-how, Nike does…It’s like I’m not trying to bake bread for myself.”

The sneakers will be available August 30 at A.P.C. stores worldwide and will come in three colors {ecru, navy and brown} and will range from $110 to $150. This collaboration won't be the last for A.P.C and Nike, golfwear, skiwear and training apparel are also being talked about.
