Here are two new colors (blue and yellow) for the Original Fake Cat Teeth Bank designed by artist KAWS. The first set of Cat Teeth Banks which was released approximately a month ago came in the colors black and green. These piggy banks produced by Medicom Toy will be approximately 5 inches in diameter. The previous sets were limited to 400 pieces for each color so we think these will be limited to around that many pieces as well. Keep a tab on Kawsone for any updates on this new piggy bank.

The latest from the ongoing partnership between Adidas and Yohji Yamamoto represents yet another shining example of the Japanese designer’s brilliance and creativity. Continuing the formula of fusion fashion and opting for a looser, more relaxed fit, this season’s collection combines trend-pushing style statements with the sporting philosophy of the 3-Striped brand. Purple metallics punctuate the monochromatic palette that forms the basis of the collection, while silver and white make a heavy presence on footwear and accessories, along with the signature Y-3 marquee prominently emblazoned across all walks and fabrics. The collection is now available at Y-3 stores worldwide, and you can see more on the Adidas Y-3 Website in the form of a virtual fashion show.
