Bapesta Kaws.Update.

Two styles of Bapesta Kaws released today at Busyworkshop Japan. 4th June.



Hysteric Glamour.

Spend a little time and get to know Hysteric Glamour. All in English, from products, brand profile, history and much more!

NBHD Shorts.

With summer coming in the Northern Hemisphere this is the best pair of shorts I have found so far. NBHD always use a great washed cotton, and this is a really well cut pair of shorts.

Ojas Tee's. Members Only NYC.

Members Only NYC. Have a pretty good selection of Ojas tees, aswell as Bapesta's, and SB's, AF1's and more.Nice site with good images.

Dizzie Rascal Air 180.

Nothing new. But I hadn't seen good images of the Dizzie Rascal Air 180 till now. (Vintagekicks). It's definately my favourite colourway yet of the shoe. I'll have to go and have a play on Nike iD and see what I can come up with, the fabric however will be hard to match, with that qality, Nike did a great job for the UK rapper.





Even the logo used on the Tongue and packaging is dope.



Bapesta X Manhattan Records.

Thanks to Concept Shop for images of the collaboration Bapesta with Manhattan Records.

The Glade. Update.

The Glade's first newsletter is out. News of new projects with Stores, Best and 90 Square Meters, as well as all the latest from Acronym, Answer, Twelve Bar and more. Check it out here.



Don't forget to pick up the latest issue of Huge from them too. Issue 14.

Air Penny 2.Release.

Thanks to Joerdan23 from Niketalk. News this week that Nike will be retroing the Penny 2. One of my favourite shoes, from my days growing up. Looking forward to it.

Adidas Camera.

Found this on ebay. Limited Edition from Adidas Japan a few years back. On closer inspection, the box seems to be branded by Hong Kong Pop Magazine "Cream"?



Vintagekicks. New Inventory.

Vintage Kicks have undertaken a massive overhaul of their stock. I am assuming this is the beginning of the incorporation of all Flight Club stock Online. After heat? This is the place to go.

Undftd X Incase.

Thanks to Beinghunted for their continued great coverage of the Undefeated AJIV project. Undftd have teamed up with Laptop and i-Pod bag company Incase to produce a bag for the upcoming AJIV release worthy of the shoes themselves.





I have to admit I am a bit of a hypebeast myself when it comes to purchases. This however is one shoe that I will not live without hype or no hype. As a genuine fan of Undefeated and their culture and of the AJIV, there is nothing better I could imagine. I would retire from the game on receipt of this shoe. We all know that these will almost all end up on ebay for exorbident prices, but wheres there's will, there's hope!

Heron Preston Vs' A-Ron.

Check out the great interview with A-Ron the Don of aNYthing fame.



Heron Preston / r$ch black guy Varsity Jacket. It's a replica of his fathers high school varsity jacket he got in 1975 when he took All City in wrestling. The gallery has tons of photos of both jackets and also some newly added photo albums.
