DC Comics x Converse Chuck Taylor Hi
This coming spring, DC Comics will be teaming up with Converse to produce their very own superhero Converse Chuck Taylors collection. These five pairs celebrate the 75th anniversary of the company and each one illustrates images of vintage superheros on the uppers. In addition to the two pairs paying tribute to Superman and two pairs paying tribute to Batman, it is surprising to see the fifth pair paying tribute to Wonder Woman. With other superheroes such as Green Lantern and Flash in the DC lineup, will we be seeing more pairs revealed in the future? Check out details of the collaboration after the jump.

CARHARTT X VANS AUTHENTIC
Modern streetwear has its roots in the great pieces of American workwear, so combining perhaps “the” iconic skateboarding company with a brand known worldwide for its durable goods, and you’ve got all the makings of a superior release. The Carhartt x Vans Authentic is a followup of the 2008 collabo between these two that goes the less obvious route. While the ’08s were done in Carhartt’s indestructable canvas denim, these go for a mix of suede and ripstop nylon that’ll take a beating whether you skate in them or not. Pairs in black, olive green and khaki all have construction orange outsoles and will hit retailers in early November. You can see more pics after the jump.

Nike Dunk High “Iron Bot” Customs
This is the latest creation of Australian sneaker customizer Sekure D, the Nike Dunk High “Iron Bot”. Inspired by the man in the iron suit, but with a robotic twist, the sneakers use an Iron Man inspired colorway in Red/Gold and feature the robot arm pattern that Sekure D’s become notorious for using over the years. In addition to the mid-panel being covered with his signature pattern, the robot arms also become noticeable beneath battle wounds, parts of the Red paneling which are made to appear as if part of Iron Bot’s protective outer shell has been torn away. Paying close attention to the shading around the edges of the battle wounds, the effect gives off a trippy 3D look into the inner robotic workings. Follow the jump for more pics of it.

Adidas ObyO Gazelle Vintage Mid David Beckham
We all know that the Beckhams are trendsetters, and maybe you also know that David Beckham is sponsored by Adidas. But what may be new to you is his selective ObyO line which, designed with the help of James Bond (owner of Undefeated), reflects the lifestyle of Beckham himself. Here we show you the Gazelle Vintage Mid, a mid-cut sneaker taking the silhouette of a moc-toe boot. The primarily maroon shoe is wrapped with a “sandstorm” trim which accentuates the shoe atop a clean white sole. You can see more pics after the jump.
