In 2008 we will see a big trend in fluo and neon colors. From Dr. Martens, Marc Jacobs to Alife NYC and Reebok, there will be a lot of choice in this area. Here we give you a preview of the Reebok Spring/Summer 2008 Neon Pack. It consists of several runners and Pump models out of the Reebok collection, each one featuring neon color accents, some more subtle others less. Reebok has had one of the strongest years since a while in 2007, and they do not show signs of slowing down next year. Pics via Colette.

After first introducing the Official Shemagh caps in neon colorways with matching scarfs, the fitted cap brand has now released the Tradi Shemaghs series, more traditional colorways. The shemagh scarf celebrated a huge comeback this season throughout the entire fashion industry. Official was the first brand to put it onto a fitted cap. For the start they offer a blue/white and a red/white version. These are available now in the Official online store.
The first neon series flew out in no time, so if you are into these, you better hurry. After the jump detailed pictures of both new colorways.

We present you the next series to come out from the New Balance Super Team 33 – the Luggage Collection. After using the New Balance 1400 throughout 2007, New Balance now worked on the 998 for 2008. Especially since this model has been rarely used on special editions, it’s nice to see it appear as part of the Super Team 33 collection.
Luxurious luggage is the theme of this new collection. One pair is inspired by Italian luggage, coming with a premium croc skin upper in a nice brown tone. The second sneaker is inspired by classic vintage French luggage, with an upper made up of premium leathers. The last one has been inspired by the military luggage by Victorinox., coming in a mix of black premium leather and nubuck. Via LaMJC.
The New Balance “Luggage” Collection will be released the 20th of January worldwide, as usual in very limited quantities. After the jump pictures of the other two colorways.

This Fall/Winter season we have seen more plaid/flannel than ever before. Almost every brand includes the shirts in their collections. But that’s not all. We have seen it on Nike, Alife shoes, Ubiq shoes, Porter and Burton bags and on many other products as well. Last but not least Kidrobot now also released their plaid series. They have released a hoodie and also two t-shirts.
Check out the other t-shirt after the jump.

Stussy just released an interesting new series of t-shirts – the Mascots & Mugs series.
“When you think of old school graffiti, you immediately think of New York City and subway cars. The two go hand in hand. While there has been books focusing on subway graffiti, there has never been one focusing on the cartoon characters that adorned those famous trains. Mascots & Mugs: The Characters and Cartoons of Subway Graffiti (Testify Books) is the first book to explore this overlooked art form. Written by Todd James and David Villorente, Mascots & Mugs not only gives a history lesson about one of the most important eras in graffiti, it also provides insight about famed characters drawn by masters such as Stay High 149, Cliff 170 and Mode 2. The authors Todd James and David Villorente answer some questions about working on the book…” Via Stussy.
The t-shirt series carries some of the most famous characters to ever be drawn onto subway cars. They are now available at Stussy Direct.
After the jump the rest of the series.

As part of their Fall/Winter 2007 collection Burton just released the “Plaid” luggage series. The series consists of several backpacks, wheelies, snowboard bags and other smaller pieces. It features an upper with a black/red plaid print. Considering the vast amount of plaid that we have seen this season on shirts, sneakers and pretty much everything else, this Burton series certainly fits in nicely.
Zozo has so far only received the backpacks, but expect more to drop soon. More pics after the jump.

Patta proudly presents the “3 the Hard Way, Triple Threat, Patta Reworked” project. A special collaboration between Patta and three different progressive and internationally accepted artists. The artists have been chosen by Patta because of their creative talents and distinct styles, obviously some of Patta’s favourite designers. The artists are pioneers and trendsetters, basically artists who know how to keep it fresh in this oversaturated world of design and streetwear. They all think and work outside of the box and are not limited to the rules of graphic design. The artists have each been commissioned to rework variations of the Patta brand name.

The special Patta Winter series, resulted in a collection of six different crewneck sweaters, two designs from each artist. All designs are printed on CYC Quality sweaters and the collection will be extremely limited. Every week they will be revealing one of the artists and the designs they’ve created for this project, accompanied by a mini interview. By the end of every week the sweaters will be released at Patta (Amsterdam) and Alife Rivington Club (New York).

To kick off and celebrate this special project they also produced a very limited series of sweaters with their beloved script logo created by Parra in three different colourways. This series we are presenting you here today.

The Patta logo sweaters all feature heavy duty fleece, thermal linings, underarm ventilation eyelets, side slit pockets and will be available in-store only at Patta on Saturday November 17th.
Check them out in more detail after the jump.

Here you see the latest drop from Estate LA, the Wallpaper series. Inspired by wallpapers, the caps come with classic all-over patterns in several colorways and the Estate LA logo embroidered on the front panels.
The caps have arrived at Fitted Hawaii and should appear soon also at other Estate LA retailers. Check out other colorways after the jump.

Montana introduces a new series of collectible artist cans. The limited edition cans comes with the artwork of various known artists. Participating in the series are OS Gemeos, Shame, Tilt, Microbo, Mist and many more.

Adidas Originals introduces for the Fall/Winter 07 season a collection of limited edition footwear – the Consortium Series. The collection is of premium nature, produced in highly limited quantities and exclusively distributed solely to selected stores worldwide. Concerning limited edition footwear Adidas has a hard standing in comparison to Nike. But we have to say, that we like what they are doing with their Consortium Series. Without the need of collaborations, they have so far presented innovative design, materials and packages in this series.

Today we present you one more package which will be released this month – the Weave Pack. This package features a special new weave construction, made out of a patent crossover with suede. The pack consists of a ZX500 and a Superskate Hi, both feature premium leathers and suede on the upper mixed with a purple weave construction. Both sneakers in the pack came out really nice!

Expect the Adidas Consortium Weave Pack to come to premium sneaker stores around the globe in the coming weeks.
