Brazilian skateboarder Rodrigo Teixeira has teamed up with two of his marquee sponsors for a collaborative effort. Using the éS brand's Square One Mid as a canvas, TX also reached out to LRG to create "The Infamous" shoe. Inspired by the album cover of the classic 1995 Mobb Deep LP, the shoe sports a black suede upper, orange contrast stitch and accenting, perforated white leather side walls and a blue camouflage inner liner. Stitched on the ankle is the name of the collaborators, styled like the Mobb Deep logo. Finishing off the look is an orange-striped white vulcanized sole with a camo-revealing translucent underfoot. To accompany the shoes, LRG has also released a matching Gold Mobb t-shirt, which can be seen in photos below. A fitting salute to one of Rodrigo's favorite rap grounds, you can pick up "The Infamous" Square One Mid now via éS retailers.
