Street Tech pals Core77 are celebrating their 11th birthday (gee, I can remember when they were still breast feeding). To celebrate, they teamed up with Fila and designed some awesome sneaks. At first glance, they might not look that unique, but designers, architectual model builders, and even makers of wargame terrain will recognize the “blue foam” material the shoes are made to look like they were carved out of. They even replicate the all-too-familiar black diamond logo. (Coinicidentally, as I write this, I have a pile of the stuff a few feet away from me.) I still covet my Core77 T-shirt. I wonder if they have any free sneakers to give away to former judges of their design competitions who traveled all the way to NYC for zippo compensation (save aforementioned groovy Tee).
