Reebok pumped out 70 pairs of a Court Victory Pump and 80 pairs of an ERS Racer for San Francisco based boutique Shoe Biz. The sneaker’s aesthetic is a play-off of the Dinosaur that is present at the store-front of True Biz’s shop. Taking the ode to the Dino one step further, the sneakers also feature embroidery on the heel depicting the animal. The Court Victory will run you $135, and the ERS costs $95. Check in with Shoe Biz, or hit some of your pen-pals from SF to cop ‘em for you.

Tens, the women’s collection produced in association with The Hundreds, was released at The Hundreds Store on Rosewood today, and will be hitting worldwide accounts over the next couple of weeks. Here’s a sneak peak at some of the great summer designs that are now available at The Hundreds Store.
Benny Gold designed two shirts for Mash SF that will be available exclusively at Beams in Japan. The artwork is based on Mash SF’s love for bikes, especially those with only one gear. Benny says the 1 love stencil is a take on the reggae saying but it relates to biking, as SF has love for riding with 1 gear. The foam hand design talks to single speed riding and the popular belief that it is the #1 way to ride in SF.
