new Adidas shoe!
adidas and Upper Playground will drop the third part of their four-part series in collaboration with Aesop Rock. The first two collaborations included Herbert Baglione and David Choe and the final one will be with Sam Flores. Aesop Rock explains the design concept behind his Stan Smith sneaker: “The faded green and gold colors have a strange eerie-meets-regal vibe that I liked when designing the art for last year’s None Shall Pass album. I wanted to continue that color scheme, and keep it pretty simple. I didn’t want anything too intrusive. Basically I just wanted something that I’d rock, and my mother might even wear them.†There are only 500 pairs available of this sneaker worldwide. Sizes range from men’s size 4 to 13.5. To get your hands on the Aesop Rock adidas Originals sneaker, visit upperplayground.com or head to an Upper Playground retail store. The sneaker will go on sale online at 8 am PT on Thursday, July 31st.

yeah, I respect Aesop, but I am not a sneaker fetishist and also never plan on Rocking Sneaks with some other Dudes name on it!
Run Dmc said it best " Calvin Klein is no friend of mine ..Don't want no Suckers' name on my behind!!!"
Its cool to see alot of this art on shoes, but I like to keep it simple...It's like skateboard art....I appreciate all the beautiful and crazy sk8 deck art, but at the end of the day functionally who gives a F&%$ what design is on your board if its going to get scraped off the first 2-3 times you hit the streets.... If you have the $ I guess you can buy the art / Illustartion or Design you like, (whatever form it comes in) and then get what works for you functionally....
ha...
