With each season, artist Jeremy Fish will produce and release three limited edition skate deck graphics as part of his superFishal brand. The concept is meant to have two artists with differing styles converge into one graphic. This first Collab Series includes artists Pushead – "The Music" (8-1/4), Todd Bratrud – "The Mermaid" (8) and Michael Sieben – "The Mushrooms" (7-5/8). Each deck is made by local San Diego deck manufacturer Watson Laminates with decks limited to 500 per graphic. The decks are currently available in all Upper Playground retail outlets.

Although often associated with flashier and more colorful elements, Bape has produced a series of simpe leather down jackets for their 2007 Fall/Winter Collection. The only discernible Bape elements are the small tag and the use of camo for the lining. Four different colors are available, black, beige, brown and dark brown are available now at Cliffedge.
New York brand Vane has taken it upon themselves to push boundaries through their clothing and designs. Their "We Are All Vane" pendant addresses the issues of religion and uses symbols of major religions, Islam, Christianity and Judaism. These thoughts of religion go further to reference city life, a place where different cultures and religions coexist together. Each piece is unique due to the manufacturing process and the hand carving process. These 100% New York made pendants each hang from a 36 inch brass rope chain. Three different plated finishes are available, gun metal plated, brass plated and silver plated. Another sterling silver version is available. The pewter plated pendants will retail for $85 USD while the sterling silver pendant will retail for $1,200 USD.
The debut of the Supra Muska Skytop was an instant hit among many with a certain gold/silver colorway becoming a classic in the eyes of many. Supra will release a similar model of their popular OG with a pure metallic gold upper with perforated leather. Not many stores in the US will stock these limited edition Skytops. Turf release their shipment on November 27th at 12:00 pm.
A follow-up to Surrender’s 2007 Fall/Winter Collection is the Regular Cut Denim which features a traditional straight leg button fly cut, made from the same Japanese denim as that used by Neighborhood. Two different styles are available, processed indigo and processed black denim. The subtlety distressed denim is highlighted by a Surrender along the waistband and Surrender rivets. Available now at Haven, priced at $290 CND (approximately $293 USD).
