It always amazes me how many sneaker brands can pay homage to a classic sneaker design and end up trumping the original. In this case Japanese footwear company Cause does a wonderful job reinventing the converse all-star. The Dot Lame Low is a canvas printed shoe that immediately exudes class for any occasion be it casual or formal. Look out for Cause to come stateside soon, unfortunately they are only available in Japan at the moment.
