Russian artist, SSUR, has teamed up Converse this Summer to produce one of the most simple and clean pairs of Pro Leather 76 Hi’s that we have seen in recent time. Over a month ago, initial photos of the SSUR x Converse Pro Leather 76 Hi surfaced and reactions were positive. The pair features an all black premium suede upper, crackled leather lace eyelets, laces, midsole, and outsole. Gold accents, used on the tongue, heel tab, and lace locks, add a nice touch to this collaboration. This pair is now available at Havenshop .

Obviously, the LIVESTRONG x Nike Collection has been coming on strong as of late seeing that we spotted two new installments just yesterday (see LIVESTRONG x Nike Bruin & LIVESTRONG x Nike Blazer Mid TZ ). Who else is reminded of last summer’s LIVESTRONG x Nike onslaught. In attempt to help you remember more, we have highlighted the LIVESTRONG x Busy P x Nike Air Force 1 in today’s In Retrospect. A year ago today, the LIVESTRONG x Busy P x Nike Air Force 1 released at select Nike Sportswear retailers nationwide. Were you lucky enough to get your hands on this sneaker and was it worth the $150? If you did not pursue this Air Force 1, are you wishing you would have now? Lastly, was it one of, if not the best Air Force 1 release of 2009? Share your thoughts in the comment section below!

So, yesterday I was all about Georgina Goodman and her colorful and playful shoe offerings. Today, I just wanted to expand on that whole idea of spring colors. It’s not just Georgina Goodman who is producing colorful styles amid of sea of 2010 neutrals . Among these are Dsquared², Dolce & Gabbana, and Marc by Marc Jacobs. Here are the top styles that caught my eye. Dolce & Gabbana DS1847 E7218 sandal $975 Dolce & Gabbana DS1784 E7093 sandal $660 – $664 Dolce & Gabbana DS1794 E7218 $409 Dsquared² hiking sandal $596 Dsquared² ‘Chiringuito’ pump $736 Marc by Marc Jacobs ‘Gommone’ platform wedge $495 As always, adding vibrant color or color-blocked accessories makes any more conservative outfit ‘Pop’….. Keep the rest simple if the shoes are speaking. Styles like these are not for wallflowers or those unable to bask in the occasional, perfect, moment of sheer fashion fabulousness. Remember, everyone deserves to be fantastic every now & then. Shoes like these are simply tools to help you find your inner diva and let her out.

In a similar fashion to the recently previewed Nike SB Stefan Janoski “Festive Green” comes this adidas Originals Stan Smith 80s using a green, long-haired suede upper. However, it’s unlikely the same thoughts were in mind when creating these that are rumored to be the ideas behind the Janoski’s. Green stitching on a white mid-sole and a white leather heel tab with green contrast stitching add some nice balance to the base, while the graphic of the tennis legend Stan Smith on the tongue tag reminds you who helped make this sneaker the best selling tennis shoes of all time. They may not help you play like Stan did, but they’ll defiantly do wonders for your shoe game. According to Crooked Tongues , an expected release date for this adidas Originals Stan Smith 80s “Green Suede” is set for sometime in July 2010. adidas Fortitude Mid “Neon” Pack mastermind Japan x adidas Collection Preview adidas Spezial – Iron Grey/Orange adidas Originals x Burton Snowboards – First Look 10.Deep x adidas Originals Consortium Stan Smith Mid adidas Originals Gazelle 2 “Laduma Pack” adidas Originals x size? “Cities Pack” – London & Manchester
