Some feelings got caught when we compared the new Supreme shoes to the Huf Doughboys. Supreme released profile shots so everyone could see what they really look like. Shut it. [High Snobiety]

The Australian Brand Perks and Mini is known for crazy colors, prints, and some of the sickest “streetwear” in the game. The new low tops for summer are a little nutso, but have an, “I think they’re still kinda sick” hit to them. [High Snobiety]

Bottega Veneta’s new slip-ons are reminicent (?) of Vans since forever, but more expensive and probably fancier. [High Snobiety]

Was the almighty Supreme sneaky-peaking at DVS’s lookbook? Probably not, but while we were browsing Supreme’s forthcoming Spring/Summer 2009 collection we saw this ambiguous black sneaker and immediately thought of the HUF x DVS Doughboys pack.

We’ll leave it up to you to decide on the swag-jacking (there’s a lot of black/gum lowtops out there these days), but these two guys do look like brothers from the same mother, from the top at least.

This February, Vans will continue the Bad Brains collaboration that it originally put together with the help of Supreme last spring. The updated line will go into broader release, with a series of T shirts and three footwear models: a ‘46 LE, a Sk-8 Hi LE, and a Chukka Boot LX.

Bad Brains, if you don’t know, isn’t new. They came up in the Washington D.C. hardcore scene, and made spots like NYC’s CBGBs famous. Meet any lost child of the 80s or 90s and they’ll tell you that Bad Brains saved their life. If you don’t want to ask, or don’t want to sit through an hour of muddled explanations, check out the Wikipedia. Or, if you know, and you’re down, petitition Obama to have them play his inauguration here.

Check the jump for the full announcement and get ready and wait. February is further away than you think.

Supreme x Vans is a combo that rarely misses, and its forthcoming drop is a lay-up.

Get there early, and check detailed pictures of all the sneakers releasing below…
