Vans has shown us several times over the years that a premium brown leather construction can make their classic skate silhouettes look the part of a full-on dress shoe, and this latest release from the California Collection is no exception. Check out the Vans California Sk8-Hi Reissue that’s slated to hit retailers during Q3, a rich mix of caramel brown premium leather and white stitching to match the classic Vans waffle sole. The corded laces take their subtle appeal over the top, making for one of the best non-hybrid ‘dressy’ sneakers we’ve seen all year.

This latest trio of Insta Pump Fury runners is kinda like a hybrid of varsity and flight jacket-inspired designs, their unique mix of nylon, leather and sewn-on patches providing a unique look and feel for the pack. Click through to see some additional angles of each pair, let us know which one you like best and stick with Sneaker News for word on the US release dates. via Tenisfuki
This Friday marks the release of Undefeated’s second Puma Clyde collaboration, this new set coming off about as differently from the first as possible for a single model. The UNDFTD x Puma California Canvas Clyde brings back the side panel Formstripes eschewed by the earlier ‘Stripe-Off Pack’, opting to switch from that quartet’s leather uppers but still avoid suede this time around. These are also unique for their use of a contrast stripe on the lateral side versus tonal on the medial, a subtle detail that ends in an even cleaner result. Click through to see more images of all four pairs and look for these at select Puma retailers on Friday, June 10th.
