6453 + 7674

Nike x Sophnet Air Oasis Mid
Collaboration model created for the opening of Soph Kanazawa store in Jan '07

Premium leather all round, with suede on the toebox and heel cup


insole: the only branding to reveal the collaborative effort
what does it mean: 6453 and 7674 types out as "Nike" and "Soph" on an alphnumeric keypad. it is always hirofumi's style to play on the digital pun


Nice detail on the outsole, the triangle air pocket: its transparent when you remove the insole! Cool as it seems, going with my experience of Nike Air pockets, it'll deteriorate so quickly it ain't even funny. Ah, the perils of a sneaker fanatic

peace

beinghunted...nowhere...now here

a pretty hefty treasure haul lately, a really nice mix if i may say so myself
stuff i liked, sourced, and hunted down... like the good ol' days



adidas x porter yoshida nizza hi
sticking to design rule #1 of keeping it real simple, its amazing it waited so long for this release to drop. clean & simple



moreaboutless MAL collaboration oxford shirt
w/ goodenough, fc real bristol, supreme and gravis
talk about clean and simple, this keeper captures HF and gang's style of collaborative "announcement": to proudly wear every brotherhood label on their sleeve. such rarity to find it deadstock.

...and a couple of "newbies"

nowhere "last orgy 2"
tracked down the college logo print finally
will i bear to wear it though? hmmm...


supreme "new world order"
this one's not that new, but really liked it coz of the theme
i remember seeing a pic of the same poster print in Tet's office, could it be an unofficial collab? :)


supreme x damien hirst tee
got this to complement the deck i got (yeah, in case you didn't know all these years, i'm a completist..haha)

i'm likin' these: Stussy XXX
i can just imagine the multitude of word/font play on triple x alone...heh

who doesn't love a jamhomemade ring? affording it is the headache, haha.
also love how Haze is down for the anniversary collection

can't get enough of stussy shades, but i'm eyeing the chrono if my wallet's ever near the mark

theres never enough denim in the world, all street heads know this...and vintage treated levis? keep 'em comin'! oh yeah, if someone spots the pair of chino's with the plaid lining, pls help me cop one? you know where to find me

nothing like retail therapy to start the year or week, cheers

NSFW section
didn't post this last month, but in case you need some help with resolutions...Vikki Blows may be of help

never never land

Sure is an eternity...
If you've been checking back on my blog for the past month, thousand apologies for the disappearance
Just one of those mood swing kind of thing
Still alive, still kickin'...maybe more moody, but yeah, still around the block. Nothing like some retail therapy to perk up my mood. Thought i'd kick the habit of my spendthrift ways, but i guess never say never...
MAILDROPZ

Medicom for MoWaxArts
Crazy little critter for my future display shelf...which i expect will have to be pretty massive to house all my spendings of the past decade LOL

Bathing Ape x UNKLE BapeSta
Hard to be a spendthrift when you come across grails. Not deadstock? who cares, i'll just thrash the heck out of it while rockin' matching unkle tees, haha
And nothing like some summer sprees...

Supreme x Malcolm McLaren

Visvim Eiger Sanction ripstop shorts

Sophnet houndstooth short pant
Shout out to the 78monster for the hookup. The Malcolm McLaren tees are the best prints for the season imo. No idea when i'm gonna be wearing them goin' by the rate i'm buying up tees, earliest estimate puts it at early-2011, LOL! But hey, thats the way i like it, wear what i like, when i like...may be a hypebeast, but not a blind one.
Some precious shorts for the hot hot weather as well. Really like the improvement to the Eigers this season, fit is superb! The Sophnet houndstooth was a nice catch, big ups to 78 for recommendation. The best bit about them shorts? RiRi!!! hahahaha

She did exactly what Michael Bay asked of her: just appear and be sexy
