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.

On the surface, Plain Gravy seems deceptively simple. For some their most memorable impression comes from one “Pharrel Can’t Skate” t-shirt. However, the themes and concepts behind Plain Gravy are rooted in something much more sophisticated. Their knowledge and comfort with visual trends, and history of style and design enable them to create contemporary designs which seamlessly incorporate popular elements. While concept driven designs have sort of lost meaning, they are at a pinnacle with Plain Gravy and evoke a sense of thought and questioning with each garment. Their 2007 Holiday Collection is currently shipping and should be available in select Plain Gravy accounts in the coming days.
