DC x FR2

Posted on 2021-01-18

Offering a skate-ready take on the Williams Slim and a more conceptual iteration of the bulky Court Graffik, each shoe is united by a black, white and yellow color scheme and special branding.

Stevie Williams‘ familiar Williams Slim boasts a white leather upper that’s constructed of ridged leather and overlaid by a black mudguard for a look that’s somewhat reminiscent of the Air Jordan 12 “Taxi.” Yellow DC branding hits the quarter and tongue, but is most visible on the latter thanks to a large rubberized badge with both parties’ logos. Black tongues, yellow laces/heel tabs and black midsoles/outsoles complete the look.

The bulky Court Graffik may be a skate shoe at its core, but here it’s all about casual style, boasting a super-sized fur tongue and printed fat laces. The tongue boasts the same rubberized badge as the Williams Slim, complete with a rabbit attempting to perform coitus on the DC logo, while uppers take on a quilted leather pattern with a white DC badge on the quarter and yellow heel tabs. Black outsoles round off the look.

VANS X FROG SKATEBOARDS

Posted on 2021-01-18

Sharing the same creative spirit with Vans, Frog Skateboards joins forces with the original action sports footwear and apparel brand on a first-of-its-kind collection that includes both men’s and women’s pieces. The offering is led by the Skate Old Skool, which is marked by a silicone charm Sidestripe that pops against an otherwise all-black upper. Playful elements emerge across the offering, including a multi-colored charm Checkerboard pattern and complementary foxing stripe on the Classic Slip-on.

For men’s apparel, the charm Checkerboard inspiration carries over into a classic short sleeve woven shirt. Frog extends its fun-loving aesthetic to the Versa Standard PO, a black water-resistant hoodie with a Frog Skateboards line drawing on the front, and colorful charms on the back. A white long sleeve tee features a Frog skateboards doodle graphic.

Leading the pack for women’s apparel is a heavy cotton jersey baby tee with colorful all-over Checkerboard print, a contrast neck, and logo screen print at the chest. A twill baseball cap tops it off with contrast stitching, an embroidered Vans logo on the front, and novelty frog and heart silicone patches that tie back to the Skate Old Skool.

The Vans x Frog collection will be available in limited quantity on February 18, 2021, at select skate retailers and online.

The original Eastpak backpack, unchanged in shape since 1976, is given a complete makeover in this seminal collaboration.
