Mike Shinoda x DC Shoes MSDC Xander 2009

Mike Shinoda’s musical stylings in Linkin Park and Fort Minor are far from subtle, but this latest collaboration is a low-key affair that draw’s on Shinoda’s art school background.  The Mike Shinoda x DC Shoes MSDC Xander 2009 is a white hightop featuring grey and light brown accents.  The immediate star is the geometrical pattern on the side panels that shows triangles, six-sided stars and other shapes.  Other signature features include Kanji characters on the inner side panels that translate to ‘limited merchandises’, Mike’s John Hancock on the heel and skull designs on the insole and outsole that remind one of the Frat x New Balance team-up.  Proceeds from the sales of these will benefit the Michael K. Shinoda Scholarship at his alma mater, the Art Center College of Design.  A worthy design and a worthy cause, these joints are set to drop later this summer.  via Freshness
