Tokyo’s Styles and their VA store concept takes the ‘V’ space here, with an athletic version of the ZX 9000, that takes simple concept, and pulls it off in…style. With a name like that it was inevitable. Marl and dark grey sweatshirt materials and colours adorn the upper, while the white on the midsole sets things off strikingly. Velour stripes and a spot of bright, reflective yellow is a perfect finish, while the decision to make the Torsion bar fluorescent is a brave and effective move that makes them stand out as much as they did in their late '80s heyday. Unorthodox materials, plus branding on the heel, tongue and a lace jewel makes for a well-executed variation on a favourite.
