R/C vehicle manufacturer Tamiya and Japanese bag experts Porter have teamed up to release an upcoming R/C Bag to provide an easy method of transporting your radio controlled beast to and from the track. Although the bag’s main focus was created for R/C vehicles, in reality the bag has many other possible usages such as a shoe carrier, LP holder or just a carry old for all your miscellaneous items. The bag is divided into the main compartment, a sub-compartment lined with an easy to clean lining, as well as a separate scratch free drawstring bag. Check out all the features here.

High Snobiety has recently release a feature on Nike’s Vintage Running Collection. The basis of this collection is to recreate the past memories and meanings once held by Nike’s innovative past. As Nike continues the releases of various retro shoes, these retro inspired runners from the Vintage Collection will not succumb to any modifications or differences as they have been created to the exact specifications of the originals. As well each shoe has been given a vintage treatment to give a sense of story. Perhaps some many not appreciate the falsification of a sneakers story, much like starch and raw denim but conversely, to some we feel as though an exact original reproduction in pristine condition just wouldn’t be the same either. The Vintage Running Collection will feature the Cortez, the Waffle, and the Daybreak.
