This past year Gourmet have become a dominant force in the sneaker world with their simplistic designs. The silhouettes may not be original but they take them, add their own touch and make them wearable. This new collection features a few new models with a mixed colour pallete of conservative toned down colours and more unconventional colours. They’re set to drop towards the end of next month, check out the Gourmet site to find your local stockist.
Yves Saint Laurent have previewed their upcoming 2011 Spring/Summer Footwear Collection with the release of a short video. The collection seems to mainly consist of high top sneakers and chukka boot styles, just my kind of collection. Very simple deigns with a minimalist approach but made with a variety of different materials, enough to make the collection interesting. Peep the video after the jump.

Yes we all know that it’s that time when every designer brand begins to show what they have in store for us in the coming season. Bottega Veneta is next to show off a collection and this time round it is their men’s Fall/Winter 2010 Footwear collection. The collection offers a very nice variety of dress shoes, sneakers, boots and even slippers made from a mixture of different materials which include leather, velvet, suede and patent leather. Shoe price ranges from $390 to $1,250. Check out a few shoes from the collection after the cut.

All the lucky nerds who attended Comic-Con last week got a chance to immerse themselves in their comic book memorabilia and movie culture. I saw these posted on various sites last week but waited for a better photo (yes, I’m picky with photo quality). They are the upcoming TRON x adidas Collection and both these sneakers light up. As a child may parents never bought me LA Gear kicks so I think I’ll buy myself a pair of these. I think it’s a pretty dope idea to partner with movies, remember the Hell Boy collaboration. More photos after the cut.

They just keep them coming. Although a self confessed Adidas freak, I’ve never actually paid attention to the Ransom by Adidas collection before. However this new Fall/Winter collection seems to be doing it for me. Granted I would like to see the whole collection and make a judgement but the way they have chosen to release different aspects of the collection at different times keeps the excitement and interest very high. These are titled The Dune and have a very different feel to them than your regular sneaker. These look like they would sit well with a nice pair of jeans (they kind of got that Timberland boot feel to them). I’ll be checking for them when they drop next month.

Now I have long been an admirer of Adidas. I was mentioning to Yin the other day that I actually have too many Adidas sneakers in my collection. Some may say that I’m obsessed considering I have (excuse me while I count) 24 pairs of Adidas kicks stacked up in the corner of my room but having seem these beauties I may just have to add the 25th pair to the collection. The silhouette is reminiscent of the ever popular Nizza model with an added twist. These by far are the most appealing kicks that I’ve seen come from the Adidas x Ransom collaboration. Check the kicks in colour in four different colourways on the inside.
