Levi Maestro x Vans Vault Old Skool – UNDFTD Release Recap

West Coast streetwear giants Undefeated have released several of their own collaborations with Vans, but most recently, the La Brea location hosted a launch for another Off the Wall tag team effort. It was last Saturday that the Levi Maestro x Vans Vault Old Skool touched down with considerable fanfare, and it seems the shoe’s greyscale upper has bled over into some of these recap images. Click through to get a sense for what went down, including a look at some food from Kogi that’s almost as colorful as the shoe’s rainbow soles, and be sure to stick with Sneaker News for updates on sneaker-centric events from all around the world. via Sneaker Freaker

Air Jordan VI No Losses by ShopImpeccable

Inspired by the work of UNDFTD, Shopimpeccable presents us with a custom Air Jordan 6 dubbed, No Losses. The model rocks the military green upper that is often seen on UNDFTF collaborations as well as the orange accents. Black provides a reasonable contrast to the upper via the tongue, insole, and midsole, while a touch of white graces the top of the rear Air Unit. Those looking to cop can head over to Shopimpeccable for a pair of their own.

UNDFTD - adidas Originals Top Ten Hi B-Sides Edition

UNDFTD has been going hard this year with no signs of slowing down. Eddie Cruz and James Bond of UNDFTD in Los Angeles could leave the game now and be proud of the impact they have had on the fashion culture. The two came together with adidas Originals for a special edition of the Top Ten. The model features a predominately black pebbled leather upper with a white contrast on the branding and outsole. Like a few other collaboration we have seen with UNDFTD, the brand includes a tough of gold on the liner and on the lace accent.

NIKE SB BLAZER “UNDFTD” CUSTOM

These are too fresh!

"So here is my rendition of the UNDFTD colorway on a pair of Nike SB Blazers.

The shoes where fully hand sewn as always and are limited to 5 pairs worldwide.
The rest of the 4 pairs will be done in either a choice of 1000 Denier Nylon or Rip Stop Nylon because the rubberized leather is really hard to get a hold of.

So the kicks where made using soft Black leather,
Rubberized Olive Drab leather
The kicks where sewn together using orange and olive drab thread.
The UNDFTD logo was hand stitched into the heel panel in Orange.
All the edges where tucked in for a premium look
And i added 2 eyelets at the top of the lace panels.

The rubberized leather is military grade and is water/dirt repelling. It was really hard to work with it, it was a huge headache to attach the upper to the sole cause the rubberized leather did not want to glue down at all, as it is treated with a repellent. So after testing out over 4 different glues i decided to sand down the leather to allow it to bond to the midsole and it finally did.

THE SHOE ARE LIMITED TO 5 PAIRS WORLDWIDE at $300 a pair, free continental US shipping.
