Put aside your fitted caps and bucket hats. It’s time to get classy. This is the Alife x Kangol ‘II Padrino’ Fedora that came out not too long ago. This is one of the more high end collaborations you’ll see from these two companies, and it’s a perfect matching and execution by both brands. The set is really three products in one. The Fedora, the Accesory Pack, and the Hatbox – all made from high quality material to keep you styling for many years.

Check out the new joint between Lucien Pellat-Finet, Milkcrate, and Vans. I believe this Sk8-Hi won’t be the only one from the collaboration project. Stay tune for more details.

We’ve previously seen a few different pictures of the pink patents included in this pack and now here’s a look at the full “Wet-Look” Pack. The AKA (Wet-Looks) are a set of seven different colorways that originated from the wet look spread in the AKA v.1 book. There was only two sets of full colorways produced. One set is going to be on display at Alife NYC in the next couple days, the second set will be auctioned off through e-bay with the benfits being donated to charity.

Finally, some good news regarding the Nike ID fiasco. The Nike Air Max 1 is back online as of 00:20 GMT. All the regular options are available, but pricing has gone up along with shipping. The rest of line should be coming back online as soon as the back log is cleared up. Head over to Nike ID to design your pair, quick.
