Another commemorative UNDFTD Tokyo 1st anniversary t-shirt seems to be on the horizon to compliment the Number One shirt already previewed. The “Run” shirt features a photo print of sprinters starting off the blocks within the UNDFTD logo with Undefeated Tokyo printed on the back. The tee is slated for a release on Saturday, March 29th.
Here’s a comprehensive look at MHI’s “No Future” collection for 2008 spring/summer. Spanning t-shirts, jackets and caps among other things. A visible difference can be seen applied to the jackets relative to the tees. The jackets are much more minimalistic in their stylings while the t-shirts possess a more visually eye-catching appeal. Special collaboration items for this collection include New York crew IRAK, graffiti artist MODE2 and a jacket with Surrender. A whole range of items can be seen over at Haven.
Leading Danish lifestyle brand Wood Wood has built a successful foundation not only through their strong in-house clothing line but a well-curated selection for their popular stores. While fitting garments seem to have been a dominating theme in certain fashion circles, Wood Wood has created a collection of anti-fit jackets which balance out nicely with their pants, hats and shirts. Available now at Caliroots.
The memo’s been passed around regarding one of Nike’s most popular current theme of distressing classic models to give them that time aged look. We’ve seen previous applications to the Dunk and the Terminator with the Vandal the latest to experience the wrath of inorganic aging. However from the looks of things the Vandal is a little better off then its predecessors with a more natural look. Slated for a summer 2008 release.
