DVS x LRG Chico Brenes "Now" Edition

Nov 18, 2009 by Jim C.

During the Fall, DVS introduced the Chico Brenes LRG collection with the first installment of the Munition CT Mid. You can read more about it here. That was then, this is "NOW"!

The "Now" version of the Munition CT Mid was designed with a modern, slightly more sophisticated Chico in mind. Chico is truly a man of international leisure and DVS designers embraced this idea in the shoe's aesthetics by using cigar-box themes in its coloring, logoing, and packaging. Designers also added custom snakeskin texturing on the collar and quarter panel, wrapped it in brown real nubuck, and added a viva suede liner on the interior for added cushioning and comfort.


Like unwinding with a finely cured tobacco, these kicks are made with relaxation and comfort in mind. Check them out here and all the latest and greatest from the Zappos Rideshop!

The black suede Munition CT Mid is the first installment of a two-part shoe series collaboration between long time DVS rider Chico Brenes and LRG. Designers looked to the early years of Chico's career for inspiration on it's look and feel.

The footbed print is borrowed from Chico's first World Industries pro model graphic, Orange Vendor, introduced in 1992 by artist Mark Mckee. The graphic features a tiny cartoon Paisa wearing a red flannel and selling oranges out of a box. This character is a direct reference to Chico's heritage as a Nicaraguan immigrant. The same flannel pattern used on the graphic is mimicked in both print and texture on the collar of the shoe. The shoe also features custom Chico and LRG branding on the tongue and heel.

To compliment the line, designers also produced signature apparel pieces that tie into the color and graphic themes of the shoes. The Chico x LRG apparel collection includes a textured red flannel New Era, a signature red flannel long sleeve, and graphic T-shirts that feature the same Mark McKee Paisa character found in the footbed of the shoe.
