Industry leaders Crooks & Castles, Gabriel Urist, and Karmaloop have combined efforts to create a limited edition Medusa Medallion. Meticulously hand-crafted by Gabriel Urist and covered in real platinum, the piece features the signature Crooks & Castles Medusa imagery combined with an elegant outer ring of K’s and script K on the back representing Karmaloop. The three dimensional medallion captures the finest details from the bullet-hanging crown, the snarling snakes, and the cold staring eyes of the Medusa herself. The medallion has an unmatched luminance and shine. This gorgeous piece will be a one-time drop with only 50 in existence, and never again. A countdown and email signup has been initiated on Karmaloop.com with a Midnight Eastern Time release on Sunday December 13th.

The Lakers got their shine last week with the announcement of the Crooks and Castles limited tees. And now, its time for the NBA Finals opponents the Boston Celtics to get a turn.

The time has come again. Supreme has released images of their new Fall/Winter 2007 collection. Supreme stores around the globe are closed and getting ready for the new collection.
The new collection looks good, what can we say. It has a great line-up of jackets, including technical jackets, leather bombers, coach jackets, corduroy baseball jackets, varsity jackets and also more subtle pea coats and leather blousons.
In terms of hoodies they also have a nice range waiting for you. Our favorite is definitely the striped model with the Supreme emblem on the front in large. The World Famous hoodie will definitely also be a favorite this season.
The New Era line-up this season is once again strong. The Box logo caps come this season on the ear flap model by New Era. Other New Eras include the thick plaid caps with the logo going over the side in large and the satin New Eras also look good.
They present this season two new denims, a raw indigo and a black denim. In terms of shirts they present two different models of plaid shirts – one multicolor and one tonal, each coming in several colorways. The oxford shirts also look good and are the more subtle balance to the other shirts.
Exciting accessories this season include new technical backpacks, Supreme skateboard wheels and the Supreme x Gabriel Urist skateboard wheel pendant.
The collection will be released September 6th at the Supreme NY & LA stores. September 8th the new line will be available in the Japanese locations. We have definitely missed out some great products, so just head on after the jump to check out the complete new Fall/Winter 2007 collection by Supreme.
