STAR WARS FITTEDS?
Dec 14th
Ok this was pretty much the worst idea of all time until I saw the chewie new era incarnation! Unfortunately, the $104 price tag isn’t helping me to justify why I would ever need headgear such as this. – MiG

JIL SANDER FOR UNIQLO = BEST COLLABO EV-AH!
Aug 25th
Back in March, UNIQLO announced that it was teaming up with minimalist German designer, Jil Sander, to create +J, a collection for the Japanese retail chain, which will be released some time in October. Recently, pictures have surfaced of what exactly that collaboration will look like: simple, sleek, and elegant. This is the very definition of that “high-low” mix that so many designers are taking advantage of in order to reach a larger audience in these times (i.e make money since no one can afford their astronomical prices).
Here are some pictures from the men’s line, which seems to focus heavy on outerwear. And yes, I want everything and no, I don’t care that I’m not a dude!

2010 HEAT
Aug 8th
I think i speak for all sneaker heads when I say 2010 is gonna be ah great and needed year for us, with the chicago bulls retro#10 dropping in January and the Infrared retro#6 making its way in stores in February also the spizike done in the bread color-way(Black,cement,varsity red,white) iam really not ah fan of these kicks but they are most def going down on my copp list,these will be dropping in February as well. I must say its about time we had a year like this, 09 has been horrible put aside the spacejams coming out in Nov, with all of these fusions and team jordans i cant even look at the jordan#7 anymore because of those damn true flights JB should of made kicks like those international release other than the True Blue#3. Not to take away from the CDP’s and the DMP’s but these retro colorway releases are the best move for JB and they should keep this rotation going,what do you guys think…
DENIM BLAZER.
Jul 1st
This Mid-Blazer features a nice splash of blue and green wash denim as well as a leather Swoosh. Well done stitching, jean Nike tabs kinda looking like levi’s and a mesh lining top off a black and white midsole that also has the red bottoms to make it pop a bit.

JIMMY SOUNDS JEALOUS
Jun 22nd
Jim Jones talks about sneakers and how fly he is and his “splash” in this Complex interview. Sounds like someone wants their own sneaker line too. Chek out the very end of this clip when Jim talks shit about the Air Yeezys. Will Jim Jones ever be relevant again? my guess is no, so who cares. I’m just getting my splash on.
LOOK FAMILIAR?
Jun 16th
Reebok drops these familiar looking style sneakers everyone was going crazy about, in their Summer 09 line. The popular Ex-O-Fit Hi sneakers comes in Redish pink and dark Purple, not exactly my favorite colors but we need purple sneakers around too. Supposely this design was made before the famous Air Yeezy, but i doubt it. Both are now available at any Reebok retailer, get yours now! I know I wont. – RICARDO
