SeaVees + Pantone sneakers

If the hue of these kicks from SeaVees seems vaguely familiar, it's not an accident: For Spring '09, the two-year-old label has teamed up with fellow Californians Pantone to make limited-edition suede-and-canvas shoes in "vintage" hues taken from Pantone's first color guide, developed in 1963. Whether your friends will be impressed or annoyed by your proud recounting of that backstory is another matter entirely.
SeaVees + Pantone sneakers, $125, available at Jeffrey New York, (212) 206-3928
