Mike Shinoda x DC Remix

You may know Mike Shinoda from Linkin Park, but his talents don’t end with the music. A graduate of the Art Center College of Design, Shinoda busied himself with the band’s packaging and branding since its formation. Back in 2003, he tried his hands at sneaker design with DC, remixing the ‘Clientele.’ Now, he’s back at it again with this new release, the MSDC Xander. He combines Japanese influences to create a shoe representative of his cultural background: the upper showcases traditional Japanese patterning, drawing from origami paper for inspiration, while the sole has been customized with koi fish scale tooling on top of original artwork—also featured on the upper, insole, and outsole. You’ll find his signature on the heel, and “limited edition” in Japanese on the tongue. Just like his first venture, the proceeds from the shoe’s sales will go to his scholarship for his alma mater: the Michael K. Shinoda Endowed Scholarship. DC Shoes has kindly offered to match his donation.

Continuing on a popular trend these days, the Reebok Pump Fury enjoys the benefit of full customization under YourReebok. Starting with a carte blanch, you’re given a pretty free reign over the entire shoe with a good selection of colors to pick from. While originally customization processes often left more popular models out of the loop with unflattering color choices, as of late we’ve seen things really open up from many brands. The “YourReebok” Pump Fury retails for $135 USD (some materials carry a slight additional charge). Play around with the customizer at Reebok.com. You can even get an iPhone App for that and customize your kick from on the road.
