Lacoste unveils their latest collection of footwear that pays homage to brand founder, Rene Lacoste. The wingtip inspired Lacoste Rene Brogue Pack will become available in 6 six distinctive colorways and model very closely after the classic Irish shoe.

Each Lacoste Rene will feature a soft premium nubuck upper, traditional brogue patterns along the toebox and display perforations throughout to finish off its distinguished look. Above all, you’ll enjoy these casual sneakers as they too will see a clean white midsole and white laces.

No release date is set yet on the Lacoste Rene Pack, however you can expect to see them available later this year at select retailers. Stay tuned to SneakerFiles for more updated information on this timeless pack.

Way back in August we previewed for you the LED Footwear Collection being prepared by the brand for next Spring. Lacoste will also be offering up at least the three colorways pictured here of the high-top Lacoste Crichton model. Each colorway boasts a nice mix of leather and suede along the upper, while white soles finish it all off. All-white, olive and royal blue alternatives are the first ones we get a look at. Can you pick a favorite?

Back in April we reported on a collaboration between atmos and the Lacoste design team that revolved around the mid-top Thurman silhouette. However, for Spring 2012, the brand has a completely new line to unveil. This footwear program nicknamed the LED, Lacoste Essential Design, consists of simpler and more presentable takes on silhouettes based on classic Lacoste shoes inspired by such sports as sailing and tennis. A higher-end look to complement what can be higher-end clothing styles. Take a look and see what you think based on this preview.

It’s been more than a couple of months since Lacoste gave us something to look at by way of the Esteban SC “Workboot” appropriate for those colder months. Since then, the Lacoste team has actually joined forces with the Japan-based atmos to design the two Thurman mid pairs pictured here. One colorway comes in an off-white and a black canvas upper with white soles and the red/blue/white Lacoste color branding in such places as the inner lining of the shoe. These will be made available from select atmos store locations and Lacoste carriers some time around May.

Entrepreneur Jazzie B, OBE, is a household name. But his status is not just due to Top Ten hits and best-selling albums.

In this video from the Lacoste Legends series, Jazzie talks about his sneaker, the influences behind it and how he designed it.

All the way back in the beginning of the year we reported on a collaboration between Lacoste and the UK’s Deep Soul Music label. Now that the year is winding down along with the temperature, Lacoste doesn’t want to get left behind the “winterized” movement. Pictured here is a brown/tan Lacoste Estaban SC mid that was designed to take on some “workboot” attributes, such as the metal eyelets and shoelaces. You can find these on sale from select online Lacoste retailers as of today.
