We’ve shown you the adidas x Jeremy Scott ObyO (Originals by Originals) collection, now it’s time to hit you with the 2nd instalment, designed by Tokyo’s fashion darling Kazuki. Having worked closely with Japanese labels BAPE, Fragment Design, Neighborhood and Visvim in the past, Kazuki brings his flair for tailored fashion to the casual market with his inspiring collection for adidas. For more information on the collection, hit up the mini site at Hanon Shop.

A staple in Japanese sneaker culture, the Vulcanised Boot silhouette has seen more nip/tuck sessions than Meg Ryan’s face. With most Japanese brands taking a stab at the Chuck Taylor rip-off, leave it to Kazuki to produce the lushest version for his ObyO collection. With his signature slimmed down three stripes, which not only adorn the mid section but also act as a heel loop at the rear, the mixture of canvas, leather, mesh and vulcanised sole will have cool cats scratching their claws to cop a pair.
