After recently presenting the Basketballs of MAROK and FRANK 151 feat. STAY HIGH 149 and Bill McMullen from the “4 Elements 4 Icons 4 Basketballs” series, we can now give you an exclusive first look at the fourth and last part of the project featuring artist Mode2.

MODE2 is a “living legend” – one of Europe’s most prominent artists in general, and a central figure of graffiti culture worldwide. Graffiti’s “thinking man” has painted and exposed his work all over the globe and is notorious for his „Battle of the Year“ designs. His sophisticated illustrations make Mode2 one of the most interesting icons in streetart today. The EARTH design features a new twist on Mode’s famous character drawings: a ballplayer.

Make sure to check out the video here below, with the artist giving some background on himself and the project.

The official global release event will take part @ Overkill Shop (Berlin) on 21/01/2010.

After recently presenting to you the Marok Basketball from the K1X “4 Elements 4 Basketballs” series, we can give you an exclusive first look at the second part of the project. For K1X’s limited artist series Frank 151 let Stay High 149 do his interpretation of the element AIR. In order to reflect the lightness of this element the ball was kept very basic and simple. An all white ball made out of high-end pu leather with grey channels and the logos of Frank 151 and Wayne Roberts with silver outline stamped on one side and his legendary “smoker tag” in silver on the other give this unique basketball its light look and make it one of a kind.

Next ones up are Bill Mc Mullen (Fire) and Mode2 (Earth). All four balls are strictly limited to 444 units and available at selected retail locations only.

The launch of the K1X “4-E” collection is highlighted by a limited artist series of unique K1X basketballs. Four distinguished icons from the realm of graphic art were asked to unleash their creativity and go one-on-one with the hoop culture’s most fundamental ingredient: the basketball. Marok (Water), Bill Mc Mullen (Fire), Mode2 (Earth) and Frank 151 featuring Stay High 149 (Air) brought their usual a-game and interpreted one force of nature each. All four balls are strictly limited to 444 units and available at selected retail locations only.

We start today by giving you an exclusive first look a the K1X x Marok Basketball from the series. Here below an interview with Marok about the project and his design.

Providers of the NBA game ball, Spalding are the latest company to team with Fight Club on a limited collaborative product. Naturally, they’ve produced some basketballs. Three-one appears close to the mid-90s glow in the dark outdoor ball, and one has a tennis ball treatment. No word on release. (Via CtotheJL.com).
