Fashion even Darth Vader would envy

Monday, November 23rd, 2009

For 2010, Adidas has fashioned some Star Wars inspired gear.  This includes some white Stormtrooper sneakers and conversely some black Vader sneakers to name a couple.  Though this is definitely not the first brand to cover the Star Wars theme, it’s always interesting (and exciting for us Star Wars fans) to see how the iconic, intergalactic story will be interpreted. I guess we’ll have to wait and how Adidas pulls this off when the collection is released next year but definitely looks promising and already loving the Stormtropper Adidas logo.

New Burton board for sale (well not really a sale)

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

Burton released a new snowboard for the 2010 season with a graphic based on a collaborative Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat piece. The board boasts NASA quality enhancements and “brings the best out of anyone who gets on it” (burton.com). And though we LOVE the design and assume its technology makes it a smooth ride, the hefty price tag of $1,200 makes us want to either hang it on the wall or just leave it for the pros.

The Pump amps up

Sunday, November 1st, 2009

To mark the 20th anniversary of the Reebok Pump, Reebok has combined 20 partners from around the world to collaborate on an exclusive edition of The Pump. The Pump has been considered innovative and iconic since it 1989 release and we’re excited to see what they will come out with. We wonder if it will be more of a tribute to the past 20 years of The Pump or if it will be a nod to the future of the shoe. Though we’re guessing there will be some leaks, I guess we’ll have to wait until November 20th to see the official results.

Check out the commercial from 1989 launching the initial shoe!
