I don’t know if it’s just me but 2010 seemed to be a pretty good year for sneakers. This Nike collabaration with FCReal Bristol is particularly dope. I couldn’t find too much info about them but F.C.R.B.’s website is really interesting. They describe themselves as “an imaginary football club”, in reality a sub-label/side project of Japanese designer SOPHNET. Besides sneakers and uniforms SOPHNET is designing “a stadium, making scale models for the stadium, designing T shirts and goods such like lunch box” for the team. And they’re psyched that they convinced Nike to sponsor an imaginary football club. Only in Japan.

 The sneaker comes in 2 colorways. I wish the midsole was black but otherwise I love this sneaker.
