Starting in early May with their quickly concocted ‘Brooklyn Nets’ 22L, Gourmet has made it clear this summer that they’re ready to expand what is already a well-defined niche within the lifestyle sneaker market. We’re seeing more noteworthy new releases now that they’ve mastered patterned suedes and other textures, and now we see not only new patterns but whole new silhouettes for the early 2013 collection. It makes sense, then, that as the brand grows, their branding is becoming more prominent on models like the as yet unnamed bred runner whose ‘GOURMET’ side panel script is the most direct advertisement we’ve seen in this company’s half-decade in business. They’ll be around for another five-plus with solid output like the woodland camo Gourmet Quadici you’ll see along with more previews after the jump, so click through for more photos and stick with Sneaker News for US release info. via HB
