I remember when I was young, coloring books were fun. Now with this new ‘Colorways for Days’, I can enjoy coloring again. This book has 24 detailed drawings of class sneakers which include: Air Force 1 + 2, Dunk Low, Air Max (BW, 87, 90, 95, and 97), Jordan’s I-V, Air Trainer I + III, Terra Humara, as well as Adidas Superstar, Converse Weapon, Asics GT II, Puma Clyde, Saucony Jazz, Vans Slip-On, Reebok Pump Fury, and the New Balance 574. In addition, there’s other sneaker related games such as: connect the dots, maze and a word search. They are available online or you can find them at the following stores: Dave’s Quality Meats (NY), Classic Kicks (NY), Golitah (NY), Kidrobot (NY, SF, Santa Monica, online), turntablelab.com, Union LA, Subject Matter (Costa Mesa), Reserve (Hollywood), Proper (Long Beach), Afficial (Philly), Nocturnal (Philly).

Upcoming Nike Slam Dunk SB's

Upcoming Nike Slam Dunk SB's

This is the first picture I have seen of these Nike Slam Dunk SB’s. They feature what seems to be brown suede, black canvas, gum sole, and white stitching. The Nike Slam Dunk SBs are looking real nice in my opinion, but no release information at this time. Pictures courtesy of Sloosnk of 5D

Friends With You

Friends With You

After hearing about Friends With You’s pretty cool exhibits at Kidrobot and at Giant robot in NY, I decided to do some of my own investigation work. What I uncovered was a buffet of odd animation’s and toys from this design firm. Check them out and enjoy the goodness.

Broken Biscuit, strikes again.

Broken Biscuit, strikes again.

Broken Biscuit was previously mentioned before on hypebeast and now strikes back with a new update. As previously promised, his figure called P.R.E.S.S. which is about 8” is already out. The name P.R.E.S.S. stands for P : Pain; R : Revolution; E : Evil eye; S : Stress; S : Schizophnia. Both arms are bendable and are limited each hand signed serial number to 500. They come in grey and white (500 each). First 100 pieces are the grey verision called “Odd Man Out”.


A Bathing Ape Sport Jerseys

Came across these on ebay, Seems like Bape is getting into the sports line by making new basketball,football, and baseball jerseys. I dont really wear jerseys, but if you love jerseys and Bape, these are the perfect fit for you!

Adidas Carlo Gruber

Adidas Carlo Gruber

Came across this on Cool Hunting. Back in the 1970’s Adidas did a collab with Carlo Gruber to make 70’s skii fashion. The clothing line was hot, everyone was wearing it on the slopes, at the lodge, basically anywhere and everywhere. But that quickly faded away. Well this fall Adidas is going to release the line again, it’s going to be called Carlo Gruber. Most of the garments are going to be remade and so they will be new and twisted into todays fasion. The shoes are going to have built in striped socks which looks amazing. I can’t wait for it to hit the stores in the Fall!

Axe bout me

Axe bout me

So I’m a new contributor to hypebeast. Thanks to Kevin. Good looking out man. I’m also talking to Kevin about working on a total overhaul of hype design wise since I’m a graphic designer. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Look for my post to be design related with some sprinkles of fashion and shoes.

The new Lance 10//2 Air Zoom Infiltrator is an old school style shoe. However it has a new court cushioning mixed with Lance’s message of hope and courage in this 10//2 sneaker.
