Nike SB November Drop


Today we give you a first look at the Nike SB November 2008 releases. The line-up includes the McFly Zoom Tre A.D., P-Rod 2, Dunk Mid, Blazer Lo and Zoom Harbor. A good part of the sneakers come in grey colors, a good choice for the Fall/Winter season. In general all sneakers in this drop are very solid and much less playful than what we are used to see from Nike SB.

These are Sick...

Adidas Originals- BW Army Mid (GSG 9 Trainers)

Determined not to repeat the tragedy during the 1972 Summer Olympics Games in Munich, where a botched rescue attempt resulted in the death of all hostages, Israeli Olympic athletes kidnapped by Palestinian terrorists.  West German officials established the GSG 9 (Grenzschutzgruppe 9), an elite counter-terrorism unit of the German Federal Police. 

As supplemental equipment to their arduous training regiment, Adidas created the BW Army Mid, sneakers that integrated elements of the combat boots, such as padded interior linings, the absence of perforation or vents, and the lack of branding. Yet still retained sneakers comfortability with flexible rubber outsole and premium leather

Nike Snowboarding and the Zoom Force 1 Boot


Among Nike-branded Russian matryoshka dolls in the likeness of Nike Snowboarding Team members sits 2 pairs of Nike Zoom Force 1, the label’s latest foray into snowboarding marketing, currently the fastest growning winter sport. Shaped closely to the proven forms of Air Force 1 sneakers, the Zoom Force 1 feature a generously padded inner boot with a series of elaborate upper design, including croc-skin, snake-skin patterns and the famous spray can heads graphics by Stash.  All feature a full length Zoom Air unit for cushioning.  Currently available at Exit Real World

Don't

“Look, I ain’t gonna make it into work today. My dick exploded.”

Obama Goes MAD




Official OBAMA campaign artist SHEPARD FAIREY has had the biggest year of his professional life in 2008 but nothing yet compares to the cover of this month’s MAD MAGAZINE that parodies his now ubiquitous “Hope” poster with Alfred E Newman taking the place of the Big O. Their new “Hopeless” poster is just icing on the cake…

Justice A Cross the Universe Documentary


With their second-ever North American tour a little over a month away, the electro duo of Justice often received much interest regarding its surreal and fascinating lives on the road. To help capture the essence of Justice, close friends Romain Gavras (”Stress” director) and So-Me (art director for Ed Banger) created a stunning documentary which features every waking moment captured in video form. The “A Cross the Universe” documentary covers not so much Justice’s live shows but the behind the scenes happenings of this unpredictable music group. The documentary pack comes complete with live CD and the DVD documentary with footage of the documentary taken during Justice’s 2008 March tour. Look for this to release on December 9th on Atlantic Records with screenings beginning Thursday, October 30th at select tour cities. A trailer can be seen here which outlines the mayhem that is set to ensue on the silver screen.

Nike Sportswear Cortez Flywire

Recently Nike has been including the latest of their groundbreaking footwear technologies in some old school running favorites. The latest of these creations is the Nike Sportswear Cortez Flywire. Nike has taken the body of their classic Cortez running shoe, and added their new Flywire construction which reduces weight while amazingly adding support. The shoes also make use of Nike’s Free sole technology which simulates a barefoot running experience to train the muscles in the foot. The Nike Sportswear Cortez Flywire will debut in 2009 while also bringing back three classic Cortez colorways.

SSUR 2008 Fall/Winter Collection



As the crown jewel of the SSUR Empire, the aptly titled frontrunning brand SSUR offers a great look into the mind of artist Russ Karablin and his blended Russian and American roots. In his 2008 fall/winter collection, his collection embodies a strong artistic theme with various Russo-relevant topics. From his use of traditional Khokhloma motifs to referencing the Russian equivalent brand of the Philly blunt, the seasonal offerings also include inspirations from old Japanese art work, Elvis and the latest Scary Hours Shark piece inspired the Wu-Tang Clan. On the New Era front, two styles of hats include the Fedora fitted which brings together a union of high class fedoras with the streetwear influences of a fitted cap as well as another interpretation of the Scary HoursSshark complete with symbolic gold fronts. The t-shirts are available now at SSUR*PLUS while the knits will be unveiled mid-month.  The Last time I was in SSUR in LA I ran into Ben Baller.  He was looking retarded.
