Henderscheme 'Homage' Series

Japanese brand Henderscheme have been producing handmade shoes since. In their new collection the pay 'Homage' to some of the greatest sneaker silhouettes ever designed. Re-creating them in the same unique handmade way as the rest of their collection. The collection is reminiscent of the Sak x Converse collaborations of the last couple of years especially when looking at the outsole. With the Nike Air Force 1, Vans Era and my favourites the Adidas Superstar which take on a completely different shape due to the leather construction of the toe box this is a seriously nice collection which not only pays tribute but makes you seriously think about the value of the quality and craftsmanship with which these are built and is a serious step away from the current mass production ethos.

 

The Adidas Superstar...

Superstar by name Superstar by nature, the Adidas Superstar is one of if not the most recognisable silloutte in the trainer business, this season sees Adidas giving the classic a little bit of a make over with 2 crazy looking designs. First up the Porter collaboration which sports Porters famous black/orange nylon combination and a funky zip entrance, fans of their last collaboration are sure to lap this up...



Secondly the James Bond for David Beckham series brings us a Superstar cross bred with a Saddle shoe, and although I am still very much undecided on wether I love or hate this, its definately got something unique about it...
