Sneakers Sneaky Steve Footwear At The Compass Show

This week, Las Vegas hosted the very first Compass Trade Show, where we got to check out all of the new product from footwear brands like Creative Recreation, Supra, Alife, Gourmet, Vael, and (pictured above) Sneaky Steve.

The sneakers are currently available at Oak in NYC, and are designed for the high fashion/tight pants/Lupe Fiasco set. See simple canvas, low profile midsoles, and clean silhouettes from their Spring ‘09 collection below.
