So, after an unfruitful Monday of trying to find a worthy pair of shoes at my local mall, a couple stores, and every online vendor I could find, I was fed up. Everything I found had been done a million times or just wasn't me. I was impressed by some Nike 6.0s I saw in a local Journey's, and always had a sort of secret crush on Onitsukas, but nothing clicked. Then a friend** made me realize, the only way to really get something that's me is to just do it myself. So, in spirit of what we're trying to do here I purchased some waterproof Sharpies and these:
I'm going to be custom designing these things with whatever comes to mind. I was thinking of going with a Sun and Moon kind of design, with one shoe for each side. But the point of this story is that if these shoes turn out aright and you guys like the finished product, I've been considering making custom shoes another service offered by Ursa. Though it might take a little more time to get those out to you since we need to do each by hand, let us know what you think.
UPDATE: After a day of work, here's what I have to show:

Say hello to Richelieu shoes in calf and suede. The Lanvin Spring/summer collection 2009 by Lucas Ossendrijver. MMMMMmmmmHHMMMM. There is really not much more of a description of these shoes. For a company that usually makes sneakers, these are a big step away, and may I say a proper step indeed. The detail is just insane and for a good reason cause they will cost you $826.58. check them out at colette.
The New 17" MacBook Pro is finally here for all of you who have $3,000 to spend (really $2,799 USD but who can tell the difference. We are in a recession, so what does it matter that you drop 3g's). It does come with some new specs:

To celebrate those classic giant monster movies, PUMA has released a pack of 5 sneakers representing Godzilla, Rodan, Mothra, Mecha Godzilla, and King Kong. PUMA also used 4 different models of their shoes (First Round, PUMA Mid, Clyde, and Stepper). Quite the collection. I'm personally a fan of the kicks that resemble Godzilla. They give off a Brooklyn punk look a la The Warriors. Keep an eye out for a March 09 release.
