Inspired by his famous red leather jacket from “Thriller” the Blazer features a leather jacket sewn in clean luxurious lines with studded collars, black satin, and geometric contrasts with a zipper baseline. The third chapter of the Varsity Bones saga is B.R.M.C: a fantasy biker gang inspired by a life on the road and on the run. The sneaker comes to life with an intense mix of locks and chains, denim rivets, gang patches, zippers on quilted linings and animal fur. The shoes will launch on OCTOBER 5th 2009 at Royalefam.

When it comes to sneaker customes there are several routes to take. In our opinion there are only two that make sense – either its a real piece of art, so you do not really count on wearing them, or they look as if they just came out of the sneaker factory, and can thus be worn. Crooked Tongues teamed up with sneaker customizer Rob L to work on the Puma XR Runner. The designer created a nice and sublt green pattern on the sneaker, making it look as if it came from Puma directly. Overal 10 pairs were made and are right now being exclusively sold over at the Crooked Tongues store.
Also make sure to read the interview in the news section on their site with the customizer!
