Sneaker Freaker and Lacoste L!VE are back with the second part of their collaboration. Sneaker Freaker has selected 3 stores to reinterpret the LACOSTE’s 1989 Missouri court shoe in limited edition of 50 pairs. The Russian shop, FOTT have created an innovative execution based on high visibility. Classic hairy suede is accented with reflective materials on the tongue and counter, while UV details accentuate the laces and branding. Alongside these details, the outsole unit is made from UV rubber, providing a glow in the dark effect when worn at night. Barcelona based shop, 24Kilates have taken inspiration from the iconic polo shirt. Mixing classic footwear textiles like ripstop nylon and terry cloth with piqué fabric and shirt detailing such as the custom button and oversized croc embroidery on the counter panel. Finally, Berlin shop, Overkill, ever-creative, have envisaged a narrative based on a classic 1968 song “Crimson & Clover”. The upper material, a classic crocodile embossed oiled leather in contemporary mint, represents an aesthetic contrast between the old and new. This is complimented by intricate details such as the four leaf clover embroidery, lace aglets and custom printed insocks. Available exclusively in the respective shops now.
