Prada Wingtip Derby Sneakers

Prada goes the sneaker/wingtip fusion route with these newly released calf leather Wingtip Derby sneakers. 5 colors are offered including some two-toned and all tonal pairs. We’re not mad at these. They all look rather nice and we bet they’re comfortable, too. Last season Prada started a big trend with their Espadrille mid-sole infused Wingtip Brogues. This seems to be a more sporty version of that. How do these compare with the Cole Haan LunarGrand?

Check out all 5 pairs after the jump.

Street Style: Vashtie in Supreme x Kate Moss

The new Supreme Spring/Summer 2012 Collection will release in Supreme New York, Los Angeles and London stores tomorrow. One of the most anticipated and hyped items to be released from the collection is for sure the Supreme x Kate Moss t-shirt. After the Kate Moss poster, with the topmodel wearing the Supreme box logo tee, was used in the latest street campaign, everybody should know about what is coming.

Ahead of launch, we spot New York tastemaker Vashtie wearing the black colorway of the tee and it looks great. Who knows, maybe for once not only dudes will be standing in line at Supreme tomorrow.

Full shot follows after the jump.

Nike Unveils Nike+ Basketball and Nike+ Training

Nike Unveils Nike+ Basketball and Nike+ Training

Yes, Nike is still not done. We are currently attending the second day of the Nike Innovation Summit in New York. Yesterday we previewed the Nike Lunarglide+4, the Nike Flyknit Racer, the Nike Lunar Safari, the Nike Current 2012 and the all new HTM Collection. Today we continue with more innovation, less on the product side, but more on the technological side of things.

Nike today unveiled Nike+ Basketball and Nike+ Training, two new experiences connecting digitally enabled footwear with interactive mobile applications that together deliver a revolutionary sport experience. First unveiled for running products in 2006, NIKE+ has grown into a community of six million digitally connected athletes and is set to expand with the recent launch of the NIKE+ FuelBand, a wrist-based device designed to track everyday activity.

The new Nike+ Basketball experience breaks down the user’s game to deliver information and measurement, which in turn provides motivation. Nike+ Basketball measures how high, how hard and how quick players play each game.

Check out the video here below to see how it works.

YouTube Preview Image

Nike+ Training transforms a daily workout from a necessity to something fun. The experience fuses the appeal of gaming with high-intensity fitness to create the perfect training companion to a 24/7/365 lifestyle.

The technology in both experiences utilizes a new Nike+ Pressure Sensor built into each shoe that collects information about the user’s movement and then wirelessly transmits data to their phone. It is then translated into different metrics delivering previously unknown information about either their workout or their game.

The first Nike+ enabled Basketball shoe will be the Nike Hyperdunk+ which will be worn by LeBron James this summer.

The first Nike+ enabled Training shoes will be the Lunar Hyper Workout+ for Women and the Lunar TR 1+ for men.

All three shoes to feature the new Nike+ technology are part of the Lunarlon collection, which combines advanced NIKE Flywire technology with a sports specific Nike Lunarlon cushioning system.

All styles of the Nike+ enabled footwear will be available and at retail June 29, 2012, in the US, UK, France, Germany and Mainland China.

More info follows after the jump.

2013 Mercedes-Benz SL 63 AMG

22 February 2012, 14.15 | Posted in Cars | No comments »

2013 Mercedes-Benz SL 63 AMG Car

After just recently presenting the new Mercedes-Benz SL roadster, the new high performance version of the sports car, the SL 63 AMG, is also ready for the road.

The new version of the high-performance roadster impresses on several counts: lightweight construction, a boost in output and driving dynamics, and 30 percent lower fuel consumption and emissions. Thanks to an all-aluminium bodyshell, similar to that of the SLS AMG super sports car, the SL 63 AMG weight has been reduced by 125 kilograms. With a weight of 1845 kilograms and an output of 537 hp, the new model will no doubt impress. A further boost in performance comes courtesy of a winning combination: enhanced AMG sports suspension based on Active Body Control (ABC), new AMG speed-sensitive sports steering, the AMG high-performance compound brake system and the AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 7-speed sports transmission.

The new Mercedes-Benz SL 63 AMG will be launched in May 2012, with prices starting at 160′000 Euros.

Man On The Boon Store Seoul by Wonderwall

Man On The Boon Store Seoul by Wonderwall

Japanese architects Wonderwall recently created the interior design of Seoul based concept store Man On The Boon by leading Korean department store Shinsegae.

“The shop interior design concept is derived from the name of the store the home of a fictional character “Mr. BOON.” Every scene of his life, including his background, is reflected on the shop design, giving shoppers a feeling that they are peeping into his life. This way, the shop offers the latest collection of items that Mr. BOON, a young globe-trotting archaeologist, has collected from around the world and is constantly being updating. The shop design gives shoppers the pleasure to come and see his closet.”

The store came out beautiful, as expected, using a nice mix of warm colors and materials, as well as sharp modern elements. Wonderwall us known for using a lot of glass and metal, as seen in their Bape store designs, and some of that signature is still apparent at Man On The Boon. We love the use of trunks, skulls, the mix of glass and wooden vitrines, and the general look of the store, which is both modern, yet comfortable.

Man On The Boon stocks Acne, Adam Kimmel, Ambush, Band of Outsiders, Bedwin, Mark McNairy, Nanamica, White Mountaineering, Opening Ceremony, Woolrich Woolen Mills and many other outstanding brands.
