For Holiday 2011 we teamed up with New York label Amongst Friends on a special colorway of their high rise Field Boot. Keeping things classic without being boring, we chose a classic wheat suede for the upper while mixing in navy nylon for the heel collar, side vent and tongue.

Limited to only 70 pairs globally, the boots are now available from Bodega, Leaders, Livestock, Amongst Friends and Soto. Grab your pair today!

Those of you who saw the latest issue of WAD magazine will know that Silly Thing, Dee & Ricky and Highsnobiety acted as guest editors, representing Hong Kong, NYC and Berlin respectively. You may have also seen the third issue of our Highsnobiety Print Magazine. With two HS print projects releasing around the same time, we decided to create a limited edition pack.

Furthermore WAD magazine went all-in and produced a special JR cover of their issue, limited to 100 copies available exclusively in this pack.

We’ve always enjoyed the way has PUMA integrated bikes into their sneaker projects, so when they asked us if we’d like to team up with them on a pair of bikes to ride during the week of Bread & Butter Berlin, we were more than happy to oblige.

The outcome is two clean rides, the first a matte olive, fold-able 8-speed cruiser with an integrated basket and vintage style seat, while the second is a more agile grey and white fixed gear. Both bikes are outfitted with both PUMA and Highsnobiety branding, alongside a Bread & Butter Berlin hit.

Look for us and our extended friends and family riding these bad boys around town all week.

In time for Copenhagen Fashion Week adidas took over the city with a series of initiatives. Included were several skate spots, the Pirates from London painted several containers, the adidas Originals Blu Collection for Spring 2011 was celebrated and a lot more. adidas also flew in some of their pro skaters from around the globe to skate the several spots. The idea was that any skater in town could use them, get filmed and participate in a competition. As a nice finish, the painted containers went on a boat tour through Copenhagen, with even the bridges of the city opening up to let the containers pass.

Check out the video, documenting the different initiatives. Enjoy!

We caught up with one-half of SUPER, Daniel Beckerman, to chat about the new Highsnobiety “Andrea” sunglasses, which are were released Thurs (and have already sold out through SUPER online). Union and colette will be receiving stock shortly.

1. Let’s talk about the design process for these frames. How long did it take to go from idea to release?

We have always talked about making something very “snob” and elegant. Many ideas were coming up and as usual some to crazy or difficult to realize some others not so exciting. At that time we were working and experimenting a lot with leather and combined materials. When we saw that Briar look we thought it would have been perfect to include in some Super new future collection, then realize that was just perfect or the HS project, showed it to David that loved it and that was kind of it.

A couple of years ago we first got together with our friends from Super to collaborate on a pair of sunglasses. In the meantime the brand has gotten older and every season we are pleased to see how they mature and deliver one solid collection after the other. We wanted to get together again and follow up on our previous collaborative work.

Today we are pleased to show you the result of this last project. We chose their still new Andrea silhouette and got inspired by the 70s. Original vintage tortoise was used on the new sunglasses, mixed with the front body and half of the arms being covered in premium leather. Our logo was embedded on the arms of the sunglasses. As usual these sunglasses are of course hand made in Italy to the highest quality standards and feature premium Zeiss lenses. Furthermore the sunglasses will come with a custom premium case, staying in line with the silhouette and style. We hope you like them as much as we do.

Due to the limited amount of vintage tortoise that we could get hold off, the sunglasses are limited to only 80 pairs worldwide. They are available from colette Paris, Soto Berlin and other select stores around the globe.  For everybody not close to one of these stores, they will also release online today at 5pm CET time in the official Super online store here.

Many detailed images of the Super x Highsnobiety “Andrea” Sunglasses follow after the jump.

The tradeshows in Berlin are starting tomorrow. This time around we wanted to create something to give to people to take back home. A while ago our photography editor Robert Wunsch hit me up about creating a little hand-out of our most recent fashion shoots. We went from there and soon after we were sitting in front of 120 pages of content, which kind of surpassed the initial idea. We went back into editing, but it was simply impossible to go below 80 pages and that is what you see here now. We do not want to call it a magazine just yet and for the moment we are not sure where this is going, how regular it will be coming out, but we can for sure say that it was a fun project.

The print issue is filled with interviews, photoshoots, photo essays and more. We worked with local Berlin artists on several pages and also included a Berlin storeguide, so that all of the people visiting this week will not miss anything.

The Highsnobiety Print Issue 1 Summer 2010 will be available for free at numerous stores in the city, galleries, as well as all the tradeshows. Make sure to grab one and we hope you will like it.

A small preview of the issue follows after the jump with more to come throughout the week.

adiCup 2010 Berlin from izem on Vimeo.

This past weekend the Berlin creative community got together to play the adiCup. We participated as well. You have probably seen our adidas Consortium Germany Team Kit already last week. Highsnobiety put together a team together with artschoolvets and Soto from Berlin. Unfortunatley we got kicked out in the quarter finals, but the weather was beautiful, the crowds were there to cheer for their teams and it was overall a fun day out of the office.

artschoolvets produced this nice little video recap of the cup together with izem. Check it out!

By now most of you have probably seen this, but here’s the official Highsnobiety team kit from the 2010 adiCup initiative.

Letterpress Coasters from Quarter Productions on Vimeo.

Michael Dacey over at Repeat Press inside the Fringe Movement Studio in Somerville, MA worked up these custom two sided coasters for Highsnobiety and Selectism.

The coasters were run off on Michael’s early 1966 Vandercook SP20 Press using coaster stock. Each sheet housed four coasters which were then cut on a vintage Challenge Advance Guillotine Cutter and corners were rounded using a new old stock 60’s Lassco Corner Cutter. The finished coasters were then hand banded and glue to form.   Not surprisingly, we ran out of the inital run but plan on pressing more in the New Year. Many thanks to Michael for an amazing job.

The video above was shot, edited, and produced by Steve Schinnerer/Iloveqp also working out of the Fringe Movement Studio in Somerville, MA. We cannot thank Stebs enough for his time and energy in making this clip for us. (music: The White Stripes – “I Fought Piranhas”)

Maybe we will be giving some away soon. Some behind the scenes images from the production follow here.
