Known for its over-the-top designs, the latest collaborative release from Buscemi sneakers is no exception to its history.
By working with mastermind JAPAN, Buscemi sneakers was able to incorporate its sought-after skull and crossbones logo in the design. The rest of the sneakers pays tribute well to the deathly symbol -- with a monochrome black upper which is minimally contrasted by shining silver locks that are located on the back of the heel.
As with other Buscemi sneakers, this version includes a bold leather strap on the back -- something that's complemented with a skull-embossed tag that hangs down. Meanwhile, the soles are marked by a stark white, pairing well with the white mastermind JAPAN representation. Engraved into the leather near the laces is the designer's name, adding further value to the high-end origin of the piece.
