Seattle based Maiden Noir got together with Japanese shoe brand Cause to work on a sneaker. So far there are no release details on the sneaker, but expect these to drop some time this Spring/Summer 2008 season. A great east meets west collaboration. Via Complex.

To mark the launch of the new MINI Clubman, a sneaker has been developed exclusively for MINI by Onitsuka Tiger. The special edition sneaker is based on the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 and linked to the new Mini Clubman design. The iconic mini logo appears under the heel tab. Also in terms of materials the shoe has been inspired by the car, with the upper made up of leather, suede and rubber on the heel. The shoe has been produced only one time and will be available at selected retailers around the globe this month in three colorways – cream, hot chocolate and black. Via Sneaker Freaker.
