Burton AK Leather Tech Glove by Josh Rubin
The end of September is not too early to start thinking about keeping warm on the cold winter city streets. It also isn't to early to think about getting back on the mountain for fun on the board. These two pursuits became one when I found these gloves from Burton. The AK Leather Tech Glove is meant to be a killer park glove, but also happens to have the lines to make it a city standard. Featuring a fleece lining that is fixed to the contoured leather shell, these gloves are warm and have a super comfortable form-fit.
$65 from Burton

Idiom 2009
Here's an early look at what's to come from one of our favorite snow wear brands Idiom. As we've come to expect from Burton's high end label, it seems as though designers Jeff Staple and Hiroshi Fujiwara have kept the 2009 line simple, attractive and technical, just the way we like it. Following suit with Burton's plans to become more environmentally responsible, going green...

Burton 2009
In between watching 1080s galore at the U.S. Open a couple weeks backs, I had the chance to demo some of Burton's gear due out for the 2009 season. Most noteworthy is their Infinite Channel System (ICS) and Extra Sensory Technology (EST)—an integrated board and binding system. Reducing the binding mount to two screws, thus eliminating the plate from under your boot. Debuted for...

Burton Archive Series
Eighties revivalism continues and when done right we enjoy seeing the era reinvented in design, fashion, music, etc. Better yet, a reissue celebrates originals and maybe even better still, adding new details to classics modernizes them for a fresh look with all the functionality we expect out of today's gear. Specifically, we're talking about Burton's new Archive Series Collection, a line that pulls out...

Burton LTD Grail Denim Jacket And Pant

The Whip by Cheetah Ultra Sports
If the Navy SEALs were to ever have an official snowboard, it would have to be The Whip F-117, so named because it draws inspiration from the F-117 Stealth fighter. Recently launched by (the oddly named) Cheetah Ultra Sports, based in San Mateo, California, The Whip has been touted as the most advanced snowboard ever developed. In fact, the manufacturer has labeled The Whip "the...
