"Alife Rivington Club, the sneaker store by Alife, has released over the weekend a small Spring '08 t-shirt collection both in store and online. Overall there are 3 new designs, each coming in 3 colorways." From www.highsnobiety.com
"Part of the New Balance A22 series, the A14 576 are inspired from coffee beans and use hemp and cork-like materials. Also the inner sole features a coffee bean design. Definitely an interesting shoe, which is supposed to be released late this summer. Pics via streetthing."
A tribute to the hugely popular and critically acclaimed TV sitcom, “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air”, PUMA takes a look back at 148 episodes of freshness.
Inspired by the hugely popular sitcom “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air”, starring Will Smith as a young street smart teenager from West Philadelphia who is sent to live with his rich Aunt and Uncle in a huge Bel-Air mansion. The show, which aired between 1990 and 1996, delivered many laughs and is credited for accelerating the growth of hip hop fashion around the globe.
The inspiration for the products is drawn from the lifestyle clash of street versus preppy, declined in two very different footwear styles, each completed with matching wristwatches:
The West Philly First Round, which sports the original graffiti artwork featured in the opening sequence of the show. This sequence had a similar look & feel as the music videos DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince were creating at the time. Shoe features include a classic suede vamp, a rubber fine mold Fresh Prince of Bel Air logo on the tongue and 3D screen-printed side panel.
The white croc Bel-Air Clyde is embossed with classic croc and constructed with the best Italian leather available. The shoe features a PUMA X Fresh Prince medallion badge, metallic gold form strip and lining, Bel Air raised screenprint and exclusive artwork from the graffiti wall on the sockliner.
Both shoes come in a specially designed velvet bag with metallic gold embroidery. 1032 pairs per style will be available at select retailers world-wide. The watches follow the same principle: first the acid green PU wristband Agitation digital model, contrasts against the heavy-quality golden Forcer Bel-Air model.
Hanon will be carrying both packs as of May."
"As part of their Spring/Summer 2008 collection Number (N)ine has released a series of "Kurt Cobain" t-shirts. All t-shirt feature a blurred portrait of the musician along with a slogan."

Look out for the new line at retailers now. After the jump many more pieces."

Here is a little interview with Roland Berry and also a preview of some upcoming styles that he worked on for Reebok.
If auto shows are about dreams, then the Milner AirCar fits right in.
Tucked away in the back basement of the Javits Convention Center with the trucks and SUVs at the New York International Auto Show was the latest iteration in a long line of dreams: the flying car.
This one is from Milner Motors: It's a narrow body car with a folding wing and a pair of 150-hp pusher fans in back. As co-founder James Milner describes it, "We believe that a truly clean-sheet approach to vehicle design can produce commercially viable vehicles that respond to today's environmental and energy needs in a way never before possible."
 when ibride’s first round of trays came out i think we all fell in love with them. and now that the second collection is out, i’m in love again. their latest series of trays are composites of humans and animals, with a distinctly period feel (and unfortunately, a higher pricetag). i’m a sucker for the goose tray with her little goslings and the big ruffled color on the black and white bird. whether you display them on the wall, use them for serving or just as a way to keep your rings and jewelry in order, these new ibride pieces are definitely worth checking out.  |
During our recent interview with the Leroy Jenkins people we have announced it already, their shoe collaboration. Today we can already give you a preview of what you will see in stores for Fall 2007.
Royal Elastics got together with Leroy Jenkins on a shoe that could not represent the brand any better. Just like their caps, shorts and hoodies, the shoe comes with a vintage flower pattern mixed with premium leathers. The outcome is a smart looking, sophisticated boot for the Fall/Winter 2007 season. On the back heel you have the Leroy Jenkins logo embroidered. This is a sample, so a few things might still change until release.
