Ryouki and Lacoste have collaborated to design and make this shoe. Ryouki is a sneaker boutique. This project is named “Double Negative.” The two companies came up with two colorways. These shoes will be released in Nov. 2008.

Let’s look at the sneaker with the black, white and grey colorway. The toe box is white and it is surrounded by a thick border of grey colored leather. The midsection is white, with a logo of Lacoste in its center. The collar around the ankle is black. It merges into the tip of the tongue, which is also black colored. The shoe lace region and its accompanying shoe lace have the same color of light grey. The midsole below the toe box has two layers, being white and light grey in color. The midsole from the center to the heel of the sneaker has 3 layers. The top layer is specked in black and grey dots. There is a short white layer and the bottom layer of midsole is light grey colored.

Now, we’ll discuss the other colorway in Double Negative. It looks identical to the shoe discussed above. The difference is in the color of the mudguard. It is done in dark grey, which is near to black in color. I like this shoe better because of the dark colored mudguard.
