The last we reported on Lacoste, there was much to be excited for thanks to this pair of Indiana High’s. Now, the French brand is coming out with a different type of heat that’s sure to make just as big a splash. Part of it’s Fall/Winter 2009 collection, the Cavaillon UE sports a three velcro strap design applied to a silhouette inspired by a low-top tennis shoe. The shoe seems to be Lacoste’s way of paying tribute to its founder, Rene Lacoste, who himself snagged three French Open championships during his tennis career. A black and a white colorway of these shoes are just now popping up throughout Southeast Asia, so unless you have a means of snagging a pair from out there, the internet or patience might be your next best alternative.

A brand staple since its debut in the 70’s, tennis superstar George ‘Rod’ Laver’s signature shoe is back with some new plot driven colorways. Forgoing the trademark 3-Stripes branding, Adidas chose to model the shoe around a simple execution-based platform, a timeless statement proving to be successful even today. Now, nearly four decades later, nine global Consortium partners have been given the opportunity to revamp the instant classic with their choice of color, fabric, and detail work. The images unveiled this week include an original colorway as well as the works of New York’s ‘Dave’s Quality Meat‘, Barcelona’s ‘LimitEDitions‘, LA’s ‘Undefeated‘, and ‘VA’ of Tokyo. Available in extremely limited qualities, you can expect these models to pop up at Consortium retailers throughout August and September.

It’s been a while since we last heard of the adidas Nizza. But it’s come back in full effect with the adidas Nizza Consortium Stripe Pack. The pack consists of the adidas Nizza Hi and Low in blue and grey, respectively. The Hi features a blue stripe leather upper and white midsole to match the white stripes. The Low rocks a grey upper with yellow stripes to offset the white midsole. These are some pretty clean shoes that only helps make adidas a household name.
