After I got the Air Jordan XI Space Jams back in December, I just had to get this sweatshirt by UNDRCRWN, which is inspired by the sneakers. So here’s what the astronaut looks like with the real shoes.
And the original design.
The Official Brand for CHAMPIONS.
UNDRCRWN has many nice basketball related items – plus other great stuff – and already a few years ago now, they did this collaboration with adidas on the Gil Zero. I love Gil and I love those shoes. Only after I wanted to send some information on them to Chrishimself recently, I found out that they are even limited to 750 pairs worldwide.
You feel like walking on the hardwood.
Apparently, this player card should be included with the shoes, but I guess mine was lost somewhere in between. Meaning, someone at the customs station stole it!
Please read this card carefully, because the last two sentences are as true as ever today. I am really pulling for Arenas to get back on the right track.
Last weekend, Freiraum Frankfurt held a charity event in their store. Limited pocket flasks by Finlandia Vodka in five different designs were for sale benefiting drinking water projects in Kenia. Before I saw them, I figured that I am (1) not old enough or (2) not desperate enough for something like this, but they looked really cool, so I had to get one. You never now, right?? ;-)
This one is designed by Viva con Agua and combines different symbols of water and life.
Thanks to Adrian for this nice little party with good vibes, good people and good drinks for a good cause!!! Hopefully more of these in the future.
Oh, and it also came with a little bottle of Finlandia Vodka. Drink responsible, it reads. But most of all: Drink in style.
Or university to be exact. For that special occasion tomorrow and in order to extra motivate me, I grabbed this backpack by Eastpak, done in collaboration with British design duo Eley Kishimoto.
It had been hanging on my wardrobe for quite some time now, after I found it on oki-ni.com. Only 1000 units of each product (overview here) were made, but were still affordable. And according to the label this backpack even should be able to carry my laptop. Great news, hehe…
Included in the package was this special paper bag, an Eastpak Eley Kishimoto pin and also a very big bag by oki-ni.
So, lets hope my studies will benefit from my new backpack. :-)
This post is about the about Sneaker Book (written in German).
It’s not your normal sneaker book as the two authors Oliver Krämer and Carsten Franke portray sneakerheads and collectors. You will find out some kool things, like one guy interrupting sex with his girlfriend, because an eBay auction was about to end (he won it!) or another one outbidding Roger Federer over the phone for a pair of Nike Air Max 1 41.
I got some new things in the last days, but I wanna start with these items, because they are my first Original Fake items I – now – possess: two little Companions!! To be exact, little Campnion Keychain Pendants, but I’m still undecided on if I will use them for my keyring. More pics after the jump.
Hey today I’ve got some rather exotic Nike sneakers. Its the Nike Court Force Koinobori Edition.
Limited release in Japan only, the Nike Koinobori resembles the koi carp banner / windsocks that you will usually see during the japanese holiday called the “Childrens Day” (Kodomo no hi) which takes place on every 5th of May. Check out Wikipedia for more info on the Koinobori.
Today I’ve encountered something on Youtube which must have been the funniest interview with a japanese guy as a host I’ve ever seen. Basically its something like a Nike promotion TV show for their streetwear designs called “Limited Edition TV”. The video features Busy P DJ and owner of the music lable Ed Banger Records.
I like the oldschool vibe of the video alot hahaha.
