— August 29, 2022 — Fashion
no-brainer* is known for bringing the aesthetics of different media sources to life with its creative sneaker silhouettes. The brand recently desgiened a pair of conceptual Dunk Lows inspired by the ‘Toyota AE6 Trueno’ in Initial D, and is now following up this collaboration with a pair of shoes inspired by the Volkswagen Beetle from Bumblebee.

The sneakers utilize a muted yellow base construction with black accents on the collars, laces, and tongue tabs. The sneaker is designed to resemble the popular Transformer, Bumblebee, and his yellow desert Beetle. Opting for a distressed aesthetic, the sneakers add hints of sand throughout, while the midsoles are also coated in the same dirtied beige color. Silver Swooshes decorate the laterals, while an Autobots logo sits on the heel.
