Lacoste have pulled together 12 of their favourite creative people and asked them each to redesign a piece of Lacoste footwear in celebration of the classic L.12.12 polo.

Including the likes of Bodega, Colette, i-D, Jazzie B, Sebastien Tellier, Sneaker Freaker and Stones Throw, there are some serious names in there! I can’t say that I’m a fan of every collaboration, but the majority are good, wearable shoes made from premium materials. You can get a good idea of the shoes from the short video below, narrated nicely by a french chap and I’ve included some pics of the shoes as well.

You can grab the entire collection now from Foot Patrol, and select shoes from oki-ni and Chemical Records. Also, pop into Foot Patrol where Lacoste have put on a little display in the front room.
