We have been hearing a lot of Gallery 1950 or their label G1950 lately due to collaborations they have done with Original Fake, Visvim, Cause, Stussy and more. This time around, they have produced several bags including a backpack, a waist bag, a pouch, a Boston bag and a outdoor shoulder bag with Japanese luggage maker Porter. Available now at G1950 retailers.

The February 2008 issue of the Japanese magazine Eyescream has recently been released. We have already seen many magazines talking Bape in these past view years but everytime someone does it, we are still interested in Bape especially the lifestyle of the main man behind it, Nigo. The Bape feature will include a long interview with Nigo, Skate Thing, Teriyaki Boyz, Wonderwall’s Masamichi Katayama and many more. The book is now available at your local Japanese bookstores.

Here is a look at an upcoming release from Nike. This Air Trainer 1 dubbed Chlorophyl will feature a nice and simple gray, white and blakc colorway. We have no idea why its rumored to be called Chlorophyl but it might in part because of the green color used on the shoe as Chlorophyl basically are the green pigments found in photosynthetic cells. Nevertheless, this makes a nice shoe for Spring ‘08 as it will be released near that time.

Here’s a look at a new Nike Court Force which according to Colmilludo is inpsired by a famous fish market in Japan called Niji Ichiba or Nijo Market. The market is located in downtown Sapporo, Japan. The Court Force features a patchwork of different textiles and textures. Other than the fish skin and the colorway, we really don’t see how it is similar to the market. No word on when or where the shoes will be released though.
The label Mishka had the chance to design some NHL inspired New Era fitted caps for Cap City. Three hats were produced using some old classic NHL team logos including the New Jersey Devils, The Vancouver Canucks and the Minnesota Northstars. Other than the New Jersey Devils, both Vancouver and Minnesota have changed logos. The Vancouver Canucks currently utilize a Orca logo while the Northstars are the Dallas Stars. Available now at Cap City and The Mishka Pop-Up Shop.
