Even though the Italian brand BePositive tends to come out with new silhouettes every season, their classic Chukka mid top sneaker still remains to be among our favorite in their collection. We like the simple lines, modern approach and smart use of high quality materials.

For Fall/Winter 2011 the Chukka returns in premium leather versions, suede versions and mixed suede/wool versions in a muted color range. SlamJam has them all in stock now.

For Fall 2011, Streetwear giant Stussy Deluxe partners with premium, Italian footwear brand BePositive, to create their take on a standard military boot. The Neva Boot, which encompasses both brands’ high attention to detail and minimalist design sensibility, was created to combine the comfort of a sneaker with the clean and outdoorsy feel of a classic work or combat boot.

The mid-cut style will be available in olive green Italian suede or black genuine cow leather, with features including a neoprene tongue and heel liner, an EVA mid sole and a Vibram, cleated “Teton” sole, which is known for being durable, lightweight and flexible. Overall, another solid option for your fall footwear rotation.

We have previously shown you the BePositive footwear collection by SlamJam, that is debuting this Fall/Winter 2008 season. So far it had only been available in Japan, but now Hanon is also offering it and we even came across a style that we had not soon before – the BePositive Chukka Pony.
It might be the best style we have seen so far, as the Chukka comes with a brown pony hair upper, giving it a really classy look. That little shine just has something to it. That combines with a more sporty white sole and brown leather with matching laces, makes a well-rounded shoe.
After the jump some more detailed images of the BePositive Chukka Pony.
