Shouts to the homies Tyjuan, Mike, Vic and Cory  at Leaders1354!!!

This is most definately something to be excited about. I’ve been waiting on these to drop since Ty showed me the prototype months ago. CRAZY colorway and usage of materials, definately one of the better collaborations in a while.

Ripped from the Leaders1354 Blog

The “Leaders1354 Jam” is made up of metallic silver, 3M, perforated suede, crackled leather, patent leather, premium leather, ostrich, and croc’d leather. The sole inspiration was from CTA (Chicago Tranist Authority) train system map and the actual train. Chicago operates around the red, blue, green, yellow, orange, purple, brown, and pink line trains so they’re all represented by the speckles. The red and blue line trains the cities major lines and both run close to both store locations (hence the two colorways). The transparent blue tinted outsole represents Lake Michigan with the Chicago Transit map visible through it.
The release party will take place Friday at D’vine (1950 W.North ave). We’ll be releasing 75 pairs of shoes on Saturday at our North Side location as well as our webstore. Limited edition tees and a fitted cap will be available also.
