Veja for Merci Canvas Sneakers

Really classy sneaks from Veja. Selectism says:
The enviro-friendly people at Veja deliver a trainer that fits well into a world of simple clean looks. “From the founders of Bonpoint comes Merci, a dynamic fusion of lifestyle store and charity shop. Created through this connection is the collabo- ration Veja + Merci : an exclusive trainer in the Tauá style, made with organic cotton canvas.” The organic cotton canvas is grown in Brasil while “the sole is made with wild rubber harvested by the Seringueiros rubber tappers.”

Solebox x Lacoste 10789

From SneakerFreaker.com:

"Solebox has buttered up for a fresh alliance with Lacoste. Equal parts sneaker and hiker, it's the inner neoprene bootie which elevates the model beyond the backlog of lo-fi ramblers that are flooding the market. With premium waxy leather, a reflective 3M underlay, metal mesh side panels, a D-ring lacing system and of course, the neoprene sock for form and function, the 10789 model (named after Solebox's Berlin postcode) launches late January. Only 30 pairs will be made of each colour."
