In our opinions, Soph. has delivered the perfect collection this season with their brands Sophnet. and F.C.R.B. The Sophnet. collection remains casual yet mature while the F.C.R.B. collection incorporates sportswear with everyday wear with ease. Honeyee has published a feature on their website showing Sophnet. and F.C.R.B. styling as well as products. We look forward when this collection hits stores.
You can check out the feature here.
Skating brand, Manik Skateboards, has dropped some of their newest items from their Spring ‘08 collection at GOODS. Products include the Last Supper tee, the Dreamcatcher tee, the Cock Fight tee, the Nylon Stadium jacket and the Last Supper Cap. There are of course some new skate decks as well with similar graphics as the tees. Available now at GOODS.
New for 2008 is this cute Plush Toy by Bathing Ape. This soft, cuddly and furry toy is known as Milo, a character often used on many of Bape’s products such as the recent collaboration with Nickelodeon for a Milo x Spongebob Squarepants toy. Unless you really like plush toys, this would probably be better as a gift for your loved one. Available now at Cliffedge.
The brands, A Bathing Ape and WTAPS, are two of the top streetwear brands in the Japanese scene. Together they have created a series of tees for Nigo’s Favorite Shop which is an exclusive Bape store for members only. The three t-shirts include the Ruined tee, the Ruined Girl tee, and the Ursus t-shirt. These tees are probably sold out already at the Nigo’s Favorite Shop so if they are, you can get them at Cliffedge.
One of the toys that we can honestly say transformed the toy culture are the Bearbricks. Their cuteness makes them easily acceptable to a wide audience plus having worked with many high profile artist and designers helps boost their popularity as well. Included in this new collection is the 100% & 400% Elvis Bearbrick, the Oasis Bearbrick set, the Boobo Bearbrick, and the Babbi Bearbrick. There is also the Bearbrick Series 16 soon to be released as well but no pictures have been released on those. We wished they would make more 400% Bearbricks instead of the 100% ones.

These will be limited to 120 pairs worldwide and will be available soon at JB Classics retailers.

Here are some new pictures of the 24 Kilates x New Balance x New Era “Modernist Pack” which is inspired by the architecture in Barcelona.

Included in this pack is a New Balance M1700 and a New Era 59Fifty Fitted Cap. These will release on April 12th at the 24 Kilates store only. Don’t miss out if you’re in town.
