Adidas Nizza Hi X Porter




Adidas have collaborated with Japanese luggage company Porter (Yoshida Co.) to bring you the Nizza Hi X Porter which sports a black padded nylon and orange lining similar to Porter's famed TANKER series of bags and the feature that sold me: a zipper down the heel to make putting on/taking off high-tops as easy as ABC. Get it at Adidas and it even comes with a Porter bag for carrying your shoes. I just received mine today.

BADASS: DORYU 2-16 Pistol Camera


"A video camera for your inner Jack Bauer. The DORYU 2-16 uses the same C-mount found on a 16mm camera with a mounted Cine-Nikkor 25mm F1.4 lens. Believe it or not, this is an actual Japanese police issue camera that is very rare to find. One lucky guy that actually owns this piece of equipment, and it is Japan’s Dr. Ryu Koakimoto." via Swipelife

So cool.

These are My Twisted Words by the Greatest Band in the Universe

At least one morsel of good news has come out in the last two days, a new track mysteriously appeared on the At Ease message board and is titled "These are My Twisted Words." Perhaps leaked by Radiohead themselves?

A Bathing Ape Fall 2009 Collection



"Originally spotted within their 2009 Fall Style Manual, Japanese streetwear leader A Bathing Ape is now making their series of ties available throughout various flagship stores. Included are classic ties and bow ties, all sporting stand-out pattern choices, including a vibrant camouflage piece and plaid options. All can be found via select Bape retail locations." via: Hypebeast



I'm really digging these BAPE plaid bow/skinny ties. Guess I've gotta find a store nearby when I accumulate the funds.
