CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: Even though these kicks are dropping a few months after the official celebration and release of Vibe Magazine's XV anniversary issue ... I aint mad @ them. After all, you can't rush good style.

It's still amazing to me just how many brands subtly and NOT so subtly "borrow" (or "bite" depending on where you stand with regard to such matters) from Versace's classic Greek "Key" print and incorporate it into their own products. I mean, 1st Crooks & Castles ran with it and now Vibe has placed it in this pair of sneaker's laces and stripes. However you feel about them "vamping" that style component though, don't even fix your face to tell me that these kicks aint hardbody ... lol. Plus, they're limited and reasonably priced too. I need these ... early. Hmmmmmmmm, who do I still know @ Vibe? Let the games begin!
