Huf SF relaunched their website today. The website has a very different look and feel from the last one, but retains the usual green Huf color. You can scroll through all their products from the home page with ease, and because it is all picture-based, you will find everything you’re looking for without knowing the names of the products. The online store is not yet launched, but it does have a very cool countdown clock that tells you exactly how much time is left.
You can check out the website at www.hufsf.com.
Here’s the new Jordan commercial which is now broadcasting on TV and on other media outlets like Youtube. In this commercial, Michael Jordan starts off by saying “Maybe It’s My Fault” and leads on with several “Maybes” before telling the watcher that perhaps we’re just making excuses for not being as successful as he was. Even though the commercial was just a commentary, the mood it gave off was inspiring. Another nice piece of work from the folks at Wieden + Kennedy and Jordan Brand.
We have been deprived of good sneaker collaborations in a while. Just when we thought all was lost, Chris Keeffe from DQM gives us a preview of an upcoming DQM x Nike Blazer on his blog. It looks like two colorways will be available, purple and black. The Blazers feature a peddle leather upper and a DQM logo on the heel of the shoe. Unfortunately not much was revealed so stay tuned for more info.
Neighborhood and Visvim both represent a different segment in Japanese fashion. On one hand, Neighborhood is all about the rockabilly biker style while on the other hand, Visvim’s style is influenced by the natural surroundings around us. As two contradicting forces collide, we are left with this newly released Neighborhood x Visvim Mowat Moccasin. The black colorway of this Mowat Moccasin gives the shoe a heavy duty look which contradicts the natural mentality of Visvim. Available now at Cliffedge.
The new Nike+ technology which was introduced last year gives runners the same opportunity to experience Nike+ technology and join the online community without using an iPod and headphones. The Nike+ Sport Band is a wristband that serves as a personal training tool. When running the Nike+ Sport Band displays your pace, calories, distance and time elapsed. When not running it functions as a watch and keeps records of your excersize history. The Nike Free Everyday+ does not come with the Nike+ Wristband, and are sold separately.
