In line with the Valentine’s Day spirit, Vans recently chose to cover a pair of the CA Era 48 in a “decadent chocolate” brown upper. But when March rolls around, there will be at least one slightly more involved Vans Era dropping. Pictured here is the result of a collaborative effort between photographer The Cobra Snake, Paris fashion store colette and the Vans crew. This Era comes in a multicolored upper with graphics that seem to include a number of different food toppings between two pieces of burger buns. This colorway drops on March 1st exclusively from colette as part of Paris Fashion Week.

Dee & Ricky and Pony get together for the first time to collaborate on the Slamdunk Hi and NYC Topstar for a special design set to release in a couple weeks. As we previewed months ago, it’s time for them to drop. And drop in style.

The Paris based shop will host a launch party on Thursday, December 15th as they release the 2 sneakers with Dee & Ricky themselves appearing to take pictures and sign autographs.

If you’re in Paris on the 15th, be sure to stop by the event to pick up the shoes, take in the sights or hang out and chill.

It’s been a solid twenty years since Reebok released its classic Pump silhouette. To celebrate the score, Reebok has teamed up with select respectable stores to release the Reebok Pump in limited quantities. Colette was one of the chosen few, creating the Colette x Reebok Pump. This Pump features a heather grey jersey upper, which is nicely bonded with blue accents throughout the shoe. A white midsole makes the shoe even cleaner, while enforcing a light tone to this throwback shoe. The Colette Pumps will only be limited to thirty pairs, releasing November 16th in-store. The shoe will release worldwide November 20th.

After the Colette x La MJC x Asics Gel Lyte III surfaced the internet, an Asics GT II soon followed with contributes coming from the two brands. This GT II uses a combination of light blue, black, white and red for its make up. Light blue is placed on the front and back of the sneaker while red highlights borders the two lines across the sides of the sneaker and can be spotted on the sole and heel tab. A matching scarf has also been created for the release. The Asics GT II will be limited to 100 pairs and 76 pairs will be available at Colette, 12 pairs at Patta and 12 pairs at Solebox. Release is scheduled for December 20th. Via La MJC.

In attempt to gain the attention of sneaker-heads, colette and GAP used their concept store campaign to team up with a few sneaker companies including Onitsuka Tiger and Converse, seen above. Using the iconic Chuck Taylor as the the base, the sneaker continues with the black/yellow caution theme, while also fighting for a good cause in the process. The colette x GAP x Converse (RED) Chuck Taylor is now available at the colette x GAP concept shop located in New York City. Via La MJC.

We initially previewed the Onitsuka Tiger x Colette sneaker with limited photos and information, however solid information can go along with these two photos. As we get closer to the September 6th release, we get a better look at the Supreme Dunk SB like appearance. The sneakers also sport a classic Colette blue and grey combination to along with a star pattern. Look for these to release at the opening of the Colette x Gap pop-up shop on September 6th. Via hs.
