Our new favorite brand SUPER just showed us their full line up for the coming season.
A very strong line up from the Italian based brand, embracing models out of their previous collection like the “Classic” and “Flat Top” and some new and exciting models such as the Andrea, W, People, and Lucia.
The Goorin Brothers are one of the best hat makers out there and I really love their style. For thier 2010 Spring collection, they are releasing,’The 1333 Minna Artist Collection‘. They called upon their special guests and friend Reyes, Steel, Yutaro Sakai, Orly Lacquao, Bert Krak, Retna, Kami, Sasu & Michael Ryan to enrich one of the many great Gorrin models, my favorite being the Peligro, by Retna.
For their sixteenth issue, French Revue de Modes ask photographer Thierry Le Goues to capture the twelve of the most sought after models in a highly over-saturated image. Coco Rocha, Tao Okamoto, Josefin Hedstrom, Jacquelyn Jablonski, Chanel Iman, Ranya Mordanova, Emily DiDonato, Yulia Vasiltsova, Hannah Holman, Laura Blokhina, Anna de Rijk and Lyndsey Scott are the line-up of beauties that made the top 12. Hmmmm which cover to pick,? I just need to get all 12…
As we all get to grips with the passing of the late Lee Alexander McQueen, we get to embrace his last 15 piece collection which was presented at the headquarters of luxury titan Francois Pinault. “Each piece is unique, as was he,” were the words spoken at the end of the show of the pieces which were all cut by McQueen, who found inspiration from the Byzantine art and Old Master paintings to the carvings of Grinling Gibbons, folding and cutting the fabric to create new and exciting shapes.
I still take time out of my day once in a while to look at the book that made me go crazy in Berlin, SKATEBOARDING 3D, by Sebastian Denz. I really felt that this classic form of 3D was the way to go for offline print. The images are crazy enough without the special 3d glasses, but really come out, literally, when you have the glasses on. Baldovino Barani, decided to mix this classic technique with the latest in high fashion, for a editorial in Archetype X, named TOTAL ECLIPS OF THE HEART. If you don’t have glasses, why not have a go making your own, because if things keep on going the way they you will need the more and more.
Nike, Parra and Patta are up to it again.
You might have seen pictures passing by on the internet, you might have heard the rumors. But it’s finally here.
March 13 the most anticipated sneaker of 2010 will be released.
We present you the Parra x Nike Air Max 1 Tier Zero.
hard graft is an Austrian and English combination that set out to create all-time classics, with the use of sustainable materials, 100% wool felt and premium Italian vegetable tanned cow leather. These materials combined to create great products. I have been able to choose two of my favorite: the Sling MacBook Sleeve & the Phone Tough Case. I love how the x-sling of the MacBook Sleeve holds the extra compartments and other accessories in place. The practicality to protect the iphone of the Tough case is also a great touch.
What do you do with your old skate decks? Do you hang them on your wall, burn then in a bonfire or use them as trays to serve hot espresso’s to your friends? Haroshi wanted to explore, as an artist and skateboarder, what else he could do with these obsolete pieces of wood.
“Time is your greatest luxury”, is what the guys at Amsterdam based, Travelteq were thinking when they came up with the brand. They set out to inspire fellow travelers by sharing their own travel experiences and creating intelligent travel gear to make the journey more comfortable. The company came into existence 2 years ago by a group of friends, one of which is Maarten van den Biggelaar of Quote Magazine, but just recently saw its conception. They hit the travel gear market with their first product, ‘Trash’, which has hit big in the online and offline world.
What makes Trash, a laptop bag, unique, is the classic craftsmanship mixed with intelligent design. The bag, which took them two years, is made of the finest Italian leather, and has compartments for the modern traveler. It has a hock resistant laptop compartment, compartments for your cigar, business cards, phone, sunglasses, plane tickets and more. The compartment for the plane tickets is my favorite little piece of genius. I hate always having to zip open the main compartment, or stick my passport in my back pocket.
It was a typical rainy day on the Nieuwe Hoogstraat in Amsterdam, but this didn’t stop the fans and on lookers to start moving to the beats of Dret&Krulle. This was the first of six instore concerts “The Suede Road“, from Puma, will be held in the coming months. The sneakers store SeventyFive, provided the location for the real-life manaquins to blast their latest tracks, including the hit, “Verder“, and share their ‘De Bijlmer’ life in rap.
A soft breeze, sunlight on your face, sound of the waves against the shore….summer time has arrived. At least that’s how it feels when you look at the new Takashi Murakami x Louis Vuitton ‘Cosmic Blossom’ collection.
This will probably the most important book on Denim history: Denim Legends – published by by WeAr Global Magazine. 400 pages of Denim madness and most inflential denim pieces; from a pair of Levis 1870 (presumably the oldest jeans ever) all the way to current jean designs. Details on buttons, labels and stitchings. Brands include, Citizens of Humanity, 7 for all mankind, Replay and other denim innovators. We all would like one. But… only 2,500 copies were made, and they costs €890 …. each. You get the guarantee that there will not be a re-print – so it might well become a collector’s item.
I really love handmade products. Whether it’s sunglasses (like Super) or laptop covers (like laptopCover), the makers really create their products with care and love. As we are moving towards the vintage and classic trend, I was checking out the products that Billykirk are making. Timeless and trendless designs. All handcrafted pieces of traditional leather Americana.
