Dubbed as the NPC Pump, Reebok and BLENDS have come together to create a powerful hybrid that captures the silhouette of the NPC and revitalized it by incorporating Pump technology into the classic sneaker. Fine leathers and pony hair grace the shoe to ensure a simplistic, yet upscale presentation. Available in respective black and cream colorways, the sneakers will mark their debut on March 24th during a complementary launch event at the BLENDS store in Costa Mesa to celebrate the occasion.
Thursday last week marked the official US Launch of Swagger in New York City. To celebrate the launch, Swagger hosted a private party event at Club Stereo NYC. With their close family and friends in attendance, Big-O and Iggy popped off Swagger with a few surprises. Included was a performance with Kanye West and a surprise Lupe Fiasco performance no one suspected. Music was also provided by Just Blaze, DJ Clark Kent, and DJ Soul. The night marked a great moment for Swagger as they are now officially in the US with bigger and better things to come.

We just got a hold of a few preview images from Artful Dodger’s Spring/Summer lookbook. According to AD, their new collection is an extension of their ongoing comic book ad campaign that’s been seen in some magazines right now. So incorporate that with the whole spring season theme and you get a lot of island influenced styles of flowers and foliage. Also look out for a limited comic book release from the Artful Dodger label which will be available in select retailers this coming Spring.
