Do these look more than a little like Converse’s take on the low-top lace-up canvas sneaker? Of course they do. But WTAPS brings in some subtle branding for their own take on the summer classic. Fresh for the Spring/Summer 2013 season, the low-tops are constructed of a sturdy but breezy canvas upper with color-matching toe [...]
Marc Jacob’s book-oriented Bookmarc sub brand and street artist Krink have combined expertise to create a small collection of alcohol-based quality markers and paint pens. Designed exclusively for Bookmarc, the 3 markers each perform a specific need. The K-12 (above) comes in three colors and is ideal for fine lines and small details, its small, [...]

As can be found with the original All Star Hi Tops, or those from 2010, 2011 or 2012 (or even their Auckland Racer running shoes) the new [...]
