^ This, and thank god. Yes he does the dandy thing very well, but that consistency bordering on redundancy wasn't what made Ford the name that he is. After all, at Gucci he was one of the first designers that I can think of to push the idea of an expensive "fashion" sneaker. It makes sense to revisit that.
Still, last season and this season are baby steps in a more fun, fashion-y direction. He needs to start running.
