OBEY x COPE2 Collaboration



Shepard Fairey has linked with NY urban art legend Cope2 for his latest Artist collaboration. The collabo is wisely named the OBEY x COPE2 Collaboration from OBEY CLOTHING. Cope2 was notorious in the 90's for his colorful & stylish throw-ups all over NYC. He started before the 90's but that's when he was everywhere. Cope2 transformed the NY urban landscape back when graffiti was not considered an art form. Now that graffiti is international, legendary artists' like Cope2 get to shine. The world has embraced the HipHop Culture from the music & fashion to art. Urban art is in the Galleries. Thanks to great artists' like Cope2.

AIR JORDAN 1 RETRO ’89 – “TORO”


Nike's newest Jordan 1 offering is the new Air Jordan 1 ’89 “Toro”. The sneakers are mostly fire-red with a lot of intricate styling ques. A red mesh overlays the “Nike Swoosh” & black background. One of the more interesting details of the sneaker. The ankles boast a speckled  grey Cement print with the “Air Jordan” graphic on it. The dominant red theme is further broken up by the white mid-sole & Grey bottoms. The flat, black shoelaces tie it altogether. Jodan’s Jumpman silhouette is embroidered in black thread for that aesthetic appeal. However at the end of the day, these are still Retro. Never the less they are Dope. Look for these to drop this Saturday, July 13th, at select Jordan Brand retailers. Check out more pictures after the drop. 

MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA GALAXY-PRINT LEATHER SNEAKERS


It seems like the Nike "Galaxy" Foamposite has inspired even the top designer of the world. The Galactic-print has been seen on everything from hats & t-shirts to book bags. It can be very difficult to re-imagine & design pieces based on classic patterns & prints, while maintaining individuality. However, Maison Martin Margiela has done just that.

Pusha T Fear of God II Good Wood Play Cloths Collaboration

Puma x UNDFTD Nylon Ripstop Clydes


One of the latest PUMA x Undefeated Collabos is the Nylon Ripstop Clydes. The NRC’s design is inspired by the military by incorporating high quality Nylon Ripstop material into the classic PUMA Clyde. Ripstop was originally developed for parachutes during World War II to replace the expensive silk material used prior. Ripstop is a very durable material and is resistant to tearing and ripping. These will last you a long time, without a doubt.
It's almost impossible to re-invent a classic. However, PUMA x Undefeated have found a way to add a twist to a classic iconic shoe such as the the Clyde. This new collection manages to capture the clean lines and classic aesthetics of the shoe, while giving an updated appearance with cool fall colors. The shoes will be available at retailers across the country. For more information you can hit up undefeated.com or PUMA.com. $65

New Style: AG Adriano Goldschmied Denim


The bright colored and waxed denim trends have been popular this season. AG has combined the two trends to give you the best of both worlds. AG Adriano Goldschmied is usually known for their worn vintage styles. However they has taken it to a new level for the new season.


Although these jeans are available in black, the true shining star are the red ones.  I really like the fact that they are a waxed red skinny jean. The waxed red denim gives it a leather type look without the hot leather feel to it. While the skinny cut gives it a retro style to it.  Although you can not get the full effect of the shinny waxed look in these stock photos, they are still very appealing. These jeans really look like leather jeans. So if your looking for a pair of super sexy jeans with a retro type vibe then these are for you. Check out the black ones after the drop.
