The A.P.C. Fall 2009 collection has been released in their online store. Along with it also comes the new tennis shoe. It is available in a white/beige colorway and an all brown colorway with gum sole.
The silhouette reminds us of the Dior Homme sneaker, just a little more simple and about half the price, thus definitely a good deal!

After the Rainbow C 5 Color and Bumbaclot’s rasta flavor launch, CLOT pushes out another new summer design, the “Round and Around” tee.
The term “Round and Around” have been used in many songs. The term also means recycling. CLOT wants to bring these two elements together and convey the importance of the message. Recycle is to limit the world’s waste and garbage, and CLOT wants to spread out the message of keeping our environment clean. The green philosophy has always been in the back of CLOT’s mind. The new renovation of the retail store Juice clearly follows this philosophy. The retail store uses a lot more natural light than the previous store. Also, the store’s air conditioning is auto controlled based on outside’s weather temperature, thus it will save energy on cooler days.
The “Round and Around” graphic cleverly fits into the CLOT logo. Additionally, “CLOTINC.COM” is displayed in LED type, which brings out its playfulness and the indication of the online store’s birth.
The new design tag can be found inside CLOT’s spring/summer collection. CLOT’s “Round and Around” tee will be launched in 2 colors, both priced at HKD530. The black version will exclusively be available at Juice and the grey version will entirely be offered only at the online store. “Round and Around” will be available at the start of July 26.
Available exclusively through oki-ni come these black eyeglasses designed by Nom De Guerre for Oliver Peoples.

Last week we reported about the online exclusive release of the Mishka NYC x Evil Design t-shirts. Here comes another online exclusive.
This time Mishka NYC worked with Skinny Digital aka The Oddity, a Swedish artist. They present "The Swedish Meatball" and the "Barnacle Bill" designs on black and white t-shirts. They are available now.
Rumors have been floating around in the net all week about the release of the Kaws Sobukun "JJP" figure and we just got it confirmed. The latest toy by the New York artist was inspired by the Japanese police mascot and of course it gets remixed by Kaws with his trademark cross eyes, crosses on hands and feet as well as the bones on the head. As usual, the toy was produced by Medicom.
The Kaws Sobukun toy will be released on Saturday at Original Fake Tokyo as well as at Kawsone already tomorrow at 12pm EST, and it will come in a yellow and a black colorway. It looks like Kawsone will only release the yellow colorway, but we could not confirm that. Let the hunt begin.
After the jump larger images of both toys.
Japan's Swagger and Rockers NYC have been close friends for a while now. But onlynow they decided to work on a collaborative t-shirt. The aesthetic of this design reflects the early 80s ska 2-tone movement and the late 80s dancehall-infused hip-hop movement, two eras both brands are heavily inspired by in their own collections as well.
This Japanese-made tee is sold out all over Japan, and is available in limited amounts only on www.rockersnyc.com. 
Anticipated by many over the last couple of months, we present you today the firstdrop of the Triumvir x Street Fighter collaboration - the Shadaloo "Crime Syndicate" Pack. This first collection with Street Fighter will be based around Vega’s (M.Bison) crime syndicate “Shadaloo”.
The Shadaloo “Crime Syndicate” pack comprises of a t-shirt and fitted cap (made by Estate LA) which will lead up to the main Shadaloo Collection in later Fall 2008. There are two color variations for this quick pre-collection drop; red/royal blue and black. The Vega (Mr. Bison) red/royal blue version will be exclusively released at Comic Con. Both the caps and the t-shirts are limited to 200 pieces worldwide. Expect the black t-shirt and fitted caps to be available soon at Triumvir retailers and in their online store.
Now have a detailed look at the entire pack after the jump.
Andrew Bunney shows us a first sample of the upcoming The Hideout x Converse All Stars.
"This version appears very simple, the profile is close to the 1960's All-Star style and is made from cotton chambray with triple-stitch construction and no boat-line around the foxing."
There is no set release date so far, but we will keep you posted.

The Etnies SLB23, the Sal Barbier signature shoe, saw a return this year. The first two colorways this year were red and black, both featuring the iconic 23 on the heel.
For Spring 2009 Etnies will bring new colorways of the classic. This time it will come once again in black and also in a light beige colorway. As usual, they both look really clean.
Check out the black colorway of the Etnies SLB23 Spring 2009 after the jump.
Some might say its sacrilege to revisit a classic album like Madvillainy. You know, like George Lucas messing around with Star Wars and digitally inserting Jabba The Hut rapping with Han Solo. But Madlib’s never been one to respect convention - and he made this one for headphone listening while on a ten-hour plane ride to Tokyo.
This album will only be available through the Stonesthrow website, which just relaunched with a new online store. The box set consists of:
CD: Madvillainy “2” The Madlib Remix. 25 tracks.
7-INCH: “One Beer (Drunk Version)” Madlib's original 2004 version, lost until recently on the floor of his Bomb Shelter studio. If you saw the studio you'd understand.
CASSETTE: The Madvillainy Demo Tape. 12 tracks, 36 minutes. This is the first and only official release of the infamous Madvillain demo that “leaked into cyberspace,” while the album was still in progress, as DOOM alludes to in the lyrics of “Rhinestone Cowboy.”
T-SHIRT: Nominated. Best Rolled L's. Madvillain shirt.
COMIC BOOK: Meanwhile... the continuation of the All Caps video, included with the CD.
THE BOX: 12x13x3 inches. Wrapped in silver like DOOM’s mask.
You can get it now here.
After the jump more images of the content of the Madvillainy 2 Box Set.
Bape will soon be releasing yet another The Godfather collaboration t-shirt and once again the t-shirt is decorated with a Marlon Brando photo print. It looks very similar to the last release, but is different.

More views of the t-shirt after the jump.

I just found a gang of shit on the scion website that has nothing to do with cars at all.
A few weeks ago we were invited to an exclusive invite only DJ Clark Kent and NIKEiD event in New York. At this event we were given the opportunity to create a one of a kind Air Force one that will be sold exclusively at The Attic Cambridge located at 563 Mass Ave, Cambridge MA. These shoes were made in a 12 pair run which makes them very limited. The color way is inspired by the Jordan Aqua 8 and features patent leather on the toe box and premium leather throughout, teal contrast stitching add a new life to the shoe. This shoe will release 4/11/08 which coincides with The Attic’s official grand opening.
Inspired by European crests, its buckle is shield-like in shape and darker in tone.
