Band of Outsiders x Sperry 2010 Fall/Winter Collection

Not sure if I would rock these, but they're definitely an eye-catcher...

Recently, I've grown an infatuation with Sperry's. My father, unbeknownst to me until about a year ago, is the freshest man on the planet, starting with his shoes. His favorites, which are ironically (ironic, because I thought I'd be wearing sneakers for the rest of my life) mine now are Sperry Topsider Authentic Originals, which are essentially classics in the boat shoe industry. California brand Band of Outsiders has been collaborating with Sperry for the past few seasons, adding new materials and colorways to an austere silhouette. The collab continues this fall with more funky designs from Band of Outsiders. This season we look forward to a furry Original Authentic, a black leather high-top chukka, brown corduroy on some penny loafers and Original Authentics, and a grey canvas design as well (must-cop). These new takes on a classic brand are conservative enough for my father, but fresh enough of a concept for me. Guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Check out some flicks of the collab between Band of Outsiders and Sperry...

Consider these next two copped...

adidas Summer Deck Shoe

Summer is more than halfway over. That still doesn't mean you can't carry over some hotter apparel into the school year. adidas has really been impressing me as of late with some of their releases. This one is no different. Taking a unique spin on the traditional boat shoe, adidas used a very lightweight black canvas material for the upper, a white midsole and a very funky red-striped interior. The Summer Deck shoe is perfect for late summer/early fall and looks great with damn near everything. And at $60, you can't go wrong. Check out some more choice flicktures. Props to Ronnie Fieg...
