The much anticipated Vans x Taka Hayashi Pack 2, the second collaboration with artist and skater Taka Hayashi, has finally been released.

Consisting of a Vans No Skool Mid Vulc, Vans Ownes Hi Vulc and Vans Rowley Shambles Hi, the pack presents a very special line-up. The amount of details on each sneaker is mind-blowing. Premium materials, including leathers, pony hair and more have been used. Furthermore there is a lot of embroidery, printed graphics and tags to be found. The good thing is, even though the sneakers are loaded with details, the choice of color was kept simple, giving the pack an overall round look.

The Vans x Taka Hayashi 2 Pack is now available at Caliroots.

More detailed images of the pack follow after the jump.

We show you two upcoming Asics GT 2 models. The GT 2 was the first sneaker in the Asics range to utilize the Gel cushioning system. Here it comes now in an all black and an orange/black colorway. It is nice how they keep the uppers simple and clean and give the laces some graphics, something one does not see too often. Via Sneaker Freaker.
Expect these to release in the coming weeks.
