Having said that, the Japanese market has always been a bit of the exception in the fitted cap market (baseball anyone?) with realmad HECTIC releasing two new styles. This includes a patent style and a more conventional wool product with a logo design done by Goodenough UK. Available now at eproze.

Their two way collaboration resulted in a design seen on this fine gauge Basecontrol beanie.

M&M Furniture

M&M Furniture

The latest memo is that industrial looking furniture is in. Japanese brand M&M have turned their attention away from garments to design a series of furniture and houseware products. Some of the products such as the stools and benches maintain an unfinished look. The three-piece bench can be configured with separate seating arrangements, but the first thing that might cross your mind is to wander over and grab a similar set up from a construction site. Tissue holders, work lamps and clipboards round out the available products. Image: Revolution Information

New Balance MT580 Spy vs. Spy

The trail running style MT580 from New Balance has had a successful run as the template behind collaborative ideas from the likes of Stussy, UNDFTD and realmad HECTIC among others. Although the last few days we’ve seen some Jenny Craig versions of popular reinterpreted styles, the chunk-master MT580 will always have a niche as New Balance’s own popular marquee model in Asia. This particular two-pack is inspired by Mad Magazine’s Spy vs. Spy comic. Three other colorways are also slated for release in the first quarter of 2008. Look for these to release in April of 2008.
