Actual Pain is new label based out of Seattle, Washington that aims to “outfit the youth of Earth with True Cult Gear.” They have just launched their first collection, which is now available online direct from the website and at several retailers worldwide. But you’d better be quick, as each design is limited to 48 pieces. If you’re a fan of these designs, you’ll love the collaborations with RockersNYC and Flying Coffin that are set to release this winter.

There is now information on how you can get your hands on the Nike Lebron IV Forbidden City editions. For this release, you can get these new LBJ IV’s for $230. The catch is that it is a 5 day scavenger release, which means you’ll probably have to follow clues where to find them in San Francisco’s Chinatown. Also these kicks are limited to only 23 pairs per day. All pairs come with a limited tee and is packaged in a premium wooden box. All proceeds go to the Chinatown YMCA Basketball Program. This is one fun and worthwhile cause, so join in the fun if you can.

The Trucks feature a spray cap collage containing STASH’s tag. They will be available this coming December and will be accompanied by a T-Shirt release.

With the recent news of the Nike Dunk Destroyer release, Nike will also be releasing these Destroyer Jackets. Made in the Varsity Jacket style, these jackets come in both a black/gray and white/gray colorway. Also check out the embroidery patches on them. The “DUNK HIGH” is located across the left sleeve, with the “DD” varsity letter on the upper left chest part of the jacket. There’s a lot of patch detailing on this jacket and should complement the Destroyer Dunk Kicks very well.
