More Information after the jump.

Remember this Japanese shoes brand I told you about in a previous article (entitled TST Trainers)? Just know that Yoox has release plenty of new colors and models. This one caught my attention because of its cap toe which is quite unusual for a pair of sneakers. While it still needs to be proved, the quality of the leather is looking good.

£89 from Yoox

Clae has released new colors for their model named Kennedy. You can notice on the picture above the special material of this pair of sneakers : denim. I really like the contrast created by this mustard sole, those two colors really matches together. You certainly have a doubt about how to wear denim shoes in general. I guess you can match them with any shorts or chinos, the ideal would be beige colored.

€63,20 from 80’s Purple

I just bought some nice sneakers from Diesel last week. I’ve never seen them before, but I think they have been launched a while ago :) Anyway, you should check them as they are really cool. Diesel oblige, they are made in denim and would be a great choice if you don’t want to buy the converse ;) I especially like the little pocket on the side which makes the footwear original and trendy. I personally matched them with some waxed dark blue pants and a simple top from Zara. The contrast with the Diesel kicks that are more casual is awesome :))

Price: £47.97 from Zappos

Here are some cool trainers for the summer. Those ones suit either for skaters and for casual styles. They are both canvas and suede made and their blue bicolor looks perfect for the season. I think they would match perfectly with any jeans of shorts.

£38 from ASOS

Fed up with your old pair of Converse? Here are some Adidas which are similarly shaped. I think those ones offer a good alternative adding a touch of coolness. Well, no other shoes can replace the mythical All-Star I’ll give you that! But check out those beautiful Adi Tennis. Moreover they’re in nylon and a low version exists too (but I’d choose the hi model). Actually they seem ideal for the summer. As I’m a blue addict, I would go for this color but knows that two more choices are available.

£49,99 from Office.co.uk

I’m sorry about publishing another article about ASOS but I really can’t keep myself from it (it’s kind of an addiction :) ). This time I’ve found those Fred Perry Pimsolls well discounted and which every size is available. The toe stiching reminds of a pair of Veja but everything in those canvas shoes suits to Fred Perry identity : the logo, two bands over the sole which makes them very cool.

£34 (was £40) from ASOS

Looking for some light canvas shoes for the summer? Don’t worry I have found some for you. What about those Nanny State sneakers? Simple and original at the same time, they have a sober patterned band on the heel. The stitch across the toes makes them quite smarter than the other pimsolls. So think of Nanny State for a little touch of originality instead of buying simple Topman shoes ;)

It’s £26 (was £35) on Pilot

People said about the Cortez “it’s like running on the moon”. This mythic model from Nike is the first shoes created by Bill Bowerman, the founder, in order to satisfy runners’ needs. Their distinctiveness, a toothed sole-rubber to avoid slides, and nylon material for the lightness. Far from their original use, the Cortez has become a fashion shoe thanks to its comfort and design. Worn by b-boys, basketball players or any person they are today considered like being part of the “hall of fame” of the sneaker culture.

It’s £30 from Nike.com (was £50)

Have you ever dreamt about getting some Alife sneakers for £25 ? Oki-ni’s gonna make your dream true. Those Alife ‘Everybody’ mid Parachute in nylon are quite funny. If you are fed up with dull colored shoes, just take these ones. Their flashy blue color mixed with the black polka dot pattern makes them ideal for the summer.

£25 (Was £99) from Oki-ni
