Oki-Ni adidas Tennis Hi

This new version is produced in dual layers of nylon webbing over a lemon peel weave and has full-grain leather overlays in optical white.

The Zoom Quilt
(25 April 2005) - There isn't much you can say about this collaborative art project called "The Zoom Quilt", you just need to see it for yourself.

adidas Y-3
(07 March 2005) - Yohji Yamamoto's alliance with adidas on Y-3 is one of my all time favorite fashion collaborations. They recently launched their Spring/Summer ’05 campaign, and it’s everything you’d expect and more from Yamamoto. Quirky, clever, and some simply out there-- all Y-3 signature designs. You can view the line of men’s and women’s fashion, a horde of accessories, and some really great classic Yamamoto style...

Kidrobot x Nike x Barneys
(26 January 2005) - Just when I start to become the slightest bit jaded about the whole collaboration - quick strike - limited edition thing, something new and exciting surfaces to restore my faith. This time it's a hot little 3 way: Nike, Kidrobot and Barney's. Both colorways have a finish that makes them look like they're straight off a vinyl doll. Details after the jump. ...

Biodegradable Mobile Phones

Diamond Crusted iPod
(30 August 2004) - Last night, following the MTV Video Music Awards, P.Diddy hosted a HP sponsored after party. HP gave out lots of the new iPods, but P.Diddy got the one-of-a-kind-exclusive. Engadget hooked up the photos of the blingPod, which has an obnoxious HP logo made from over 120 diamonds. I can't honestly say I like this thing, but it's still outrageous enough to be post worthy....
Y3 by Yohji Yamomoto
(18 August 2004) - In general, I find the Y3 line from Yohji Yamomoto a little over branded. The new web site, however, is fabulous! The impact comes from the large scale, full motion animation of models walking in place wearing each of the different looks. You can rotate the models to see all angles. Reading this as I write it, it sounds cheesy. Trust me, it's so...
Follow the Leader
