They look like some cheapo Chinese made generic OEM shoe like every other company sells but with their logo on it and a bit of colour. Not remotely groundbreaking at all, but no dought they sell for like loads just because its a collab. The fact that it is Umbro is enough to put me off though cos I'm a snob!

I like some of the Umbro Kim Jones, they have some nice hoods and shoes, these just look like a pair of generic skate shoes and have no real tie to the Umbro diamond like the old shoes.

Where are Umbro/Kim Jones made?

No idea but I'll give you 3 guesses where it is probably made given much of their products up until the late 90's were manufactured in the US. Still its nice to see they have some corporate responsibility http://www.umbroplc.com/standard_1.aspx?id=6:108
