THREE WAY TIE FOR SHOE OF THE MONTH!!!!!

AFTER WEEKS AND WEEKS OF TRYING TO FIND THE CARTEL SHOE OF THE MONTH WE FINNALY FOUND THE BEST THREE. I COULDNT PICK. MAYBE ONE OF OUR MORE DISTINGUISHED PANEL MEMBERS WILL BE ABLE TO NARROW IT DOWN MORE BUT THESE ARE MY THREE AS OF NOW 12/9/08

FROM THE ZIM:

The Alife "Everybody High" model, this season gots the Americas Cup sail style look. Very Marine detailing and fabrics. NYC streets meets the Prada boat! http://www.caliroots.com/

Taka Hayashi is one artist we have great respect for. He has been doing great works for Stussy and Vans in the past, aswell as his own line Destroy your Enemy. His style is everything handdrawn and very detailed. With that perfect touch of hardass Japanese twist of Amerikana and Cali Classics. This Special Vans X TAKA Pack, still has that clean and sharp black white look, but veeeeery mad detailing thoughout!! Check pics closely and be amazed on the work on these ones!! The Sole is actually taken from the pre-Authentic Vans modell the "44", the OG deck sole.. flat but with a flexy grippy pattern.. and again the materials and work put into these shows his mastercraft as designer and artist!! http://www.caliroots.com/

Winter proof Blazer in sticky rubber with Pendelton wool fabric. Nike Does it Again ACG Style!!
