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!

For Hong Kong’s Eric So, he’s always careful in describing himself. Although his most well known talents are known almost exclusively as a toy-maker, he’s quick to point out that his skills and interests extend far beyond figures and into the realm of art and most recently fashion. Incorporating his “Turn Me Red” theme, throughout each piece, the garments are monotone in color, however he urges to keep things real and spread the brotherly love. A look here reveals t-shirts, bags and hats. Look for these to release at Juice and Sense Organ.
