Insa and designer Ben Rousseau have been hard at work putting their artistic touch on the current incarnation of the Ice Hotel. The duo worked just under 3 weeks in sub-35 degree tempratures to carve a gigantic pair of ice heels. What they created is a grand artist suite with bed between the legs, and an arched window decorated with Insa’s signature engravings.
Coming from the adidas and Vespa collaboration this Spring/Summer 2009 season, is the above beige suede mid top sneaker. It comes with an all suede upper and nice quality details and a gum sole. The sneaker certainly transmits the whole 60’s Vespa vibe.
The adidas x Vespa sneaker is now available at colette.
