Here’s a look into a selection of forthcoming Gourmet sneakers. Combining pony fur with premium leather and details such as exposed air bubbles and hiking elements, Gourmet offer something a little more grown up without being boring.

More looks at the upcoming Gourmet releases after the break.

Though most well-known for their footwear, Gourmet has been producing some impressive apparel since their inception. Fall 2009 sees Gourmet team up alongside iconic sportswear label Champion on a set of tees. Offered in both short-sleeve and long-sleeve styles, the tees are adorned with simple imagery consisting of Gourmet’s logo and namesake. Shipping to accounts this week with Delivery 2 of Gourmet’s Fall 2009 Collection.

For your viewing pleasure, we’ve also got some exclusive beauty shots of the Fall 2 Quadici shoe from Gourmet. Check out the Quadici and have a closer look at the Gourmet x Champion Tees after the click.

Gourmet drops a look into one of their new models called the Diecisette. Featuring a smooth leather upper and 15 hole lacing system, the Diecisette is clean and simple, yet far from typical. The sneaker will be available Spring 2010 at finer shoe retailers near you and of course at Gourmet’s shop. Apparently Young Jeezy already has his pair.

The second part of the Gourmet Fall 2009 Footwear Collection has been released. The brand continues on a more subtle path this season in terms of colors. The sneakers look very premium in brown, black, white and grey tones. The first drop included a few epi leather versions, this drop concentrates on premium leathers and canvas. The sneakers are now all available at Proper.

The Gourmet Fall 2009 Footwear Collection has just been released last week and from first feedback, we can say that it is the strongest line-up to come from the brand to date. That does not mean that they stand still. For Spring/Summer 2010 you will see the release of a Gourmet x Undefeated collaborative sneaker. They worked together on the Quattro. It comes in white premium leather with black mid-sole, tongue and lining. The Undefeated logo has been embossed onto the upper, which is a nice and subtle detail. The sneaker will come with four laces – red, black, blue and white. Since the sneaker keeps an overall subtle appearance, the laces will nicely change the look and feel of it, depending on the choice of color. Look out for a Janaury 2010 release.

Today we give you an extensive look at the first part of the Gourmet Fall 2009 Collection. The LA brand continues to nicely grow the collection, establish new silhouettes and most importantly keep a nice balance between premium materials and wearability.

The Otto and the Cinque both come in premium epi leathers. They present the new high top Nove sneaker, which also comes in epi leather. The Uno style comes in two box leather colorways.

The Gourmet Fall 2009 Footwear will be released in premium boutiques around the globe this week.

Gourmet is once again present and showing their upcoming Spring/Summer 2010 Collection at Bread & Butter Berlin. The L’Otto is one of the more interesting pieces in the line, fusing the duck boot with a more lifestyle oriented sneaker silhouette. Next year the style returns in some fantastic tonal colorway, including red, grey, acqua and salmon. Make sure to pass by their booth and check out the line. They also produced some dope screenprinted posters for the show and if you are lucky you might actually get one.

Today you get a first look at the Gourmet Spring/Summer 2009 Apparel Collection. In terms of silhouettes they kept the line-up very classic. The apparel seems to be a well fitting addition to their footwear.

“The Gourmet SS2009 apparel collection consists of classic silhouettes and highlights some greatest hits of iconic american sportswear silhouettes – a marled viscose knit woven with the tile pattern of the Duomo floor is cut into a comfortable pullover hoody, a raglan sleeve contrast “wiffle ball” shirt and basic v-neck tees get upgraded in smooth, slightly slick mercerized cotton. Stylistically elevated gym pants, an evergreen and signature piece to the Gourmet line, are cut from a light terry fleece for warmer weather and sweat shorts get a nylon overlay treatment; both are slightly louche, luxurious and naturally, made in Italy.”

The Gourmet Spring/Summer 2009 Apparel Collection is now out yet, but should be dropping in the coming weeks.
