Japan-based designer Maison Mihara Tasuhiro worked in conjunction with footwear label DC Shoes on a new sneaker entitled the 'Court Graffik.' The new footwear option takes on a chunky structure and features components that are just as large. This includes a padded tongue, oversized branding and an upper that is constructed from quilted leather materials. The latest Court Graffik sneakers are offered in three colorway options of black, gray and white -- all of which sit atop of contrasting sole units.
The branding accents adorn the medial sides and the lacing systems showcase thick laces as a nod to 90s skate culture. Additionally, the wide-set laces are detailed with Maison Mihara Yashiro branding to round out the entire piece.
