Among the special grand opening items are a series of t-shirts created with none other then Stussy and the special Satin SK8-HIs seen recently. Check out the new store if you’re around the area.

The skateshop/boutique, HUF, which was originally from San Francisco will be making its way to LA very soon. With that said, here are the latest releases from the HUF brand which will be releasing this week at the HUF store on Sutter Street in San Francisco.
Among San Francisco’s institutions, HUF is releasing some new pieces as part of their spring/summer collection. Their cut & sew apparel is quickly becoming a trademark touch for the brand as we’ve seen a strong collection thus far in the last few months. Included in the Saturday, May 3rd release are button-ups and a barracuda style jacket.

Despite HUF’s strong allegiance with Nike, skate brand DVS has always been integral part of HUF’s footwear arsenal. New more subtle colorways was created for the Huf 5 Lows and Huf 5 Runners. The 2 sneakers uses a stealthier purple/black/gray colorway with HUF’s signature earthquake pattern; the HUF 5 Lows uses extra durable suede as its primary material and the Huf 5 runners utilizes smooth leather.

Keith Hufnagel has previewed HUF’s upcoming collection for spring/summer. The San Francisco retailer has developed strength and momentum with each passing season, with these latest previews showing no doubt the maturity and direction of arguably one of the industries biggest in-house labels. Stay tuned for a further information including the rumored opening of an upcoming HUF in the Los Angeles area.
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.
As part of Reigning Champ’s 2008 spring collection, the high quality purveyors of minimalistic staples has teamed up with San Francisco’s HUF to create two striped sweat Henleys. The colors include black/white stripes and green/white stripes. The Henleys are currently available alongside the spring 2008 Reigning Champ collection over at Haven.
An all new set of New Era 59FIFTY fitted caps are set to drop today at HUF. Three colorful plaid joints will be releasing just in time for Spring. These come as a follow-up to last month’s similar plaid release both sharing that iconic H logo.

It looks like the San Francisco based skate shop, HUF, is currently working with footwear makers, Vans, for a new collaboration. Unfortunately there isn’t that much information other than the fact that they have chosen the Vans Chukka model for the collaboration sneaker and that there will also be a matching New Era 59Fifty Fitted Cap to go along side the shoes. Guess we’ll have just to wait and see!
