If you have been though the shop, you know we don’t get down with a lot of AF1 product, but these are an exception my friend. The colorway is listed as blue, grey and flamingo, but we just call them fire. Help us reclaim AF1s from the 6x white tee crowd!
Nike - Air Force One - Neutral Grey/Black-University Blue-Flamingo, ($88)
Wow, this goes way past paint. Alex Nash, building customized shoes over in England was recently featured in a video by the prestigious V&A Museum in London.
It’s on the way!!! For those that don’t know, Nooka released a special edition Zub watch for Kanye West’s Glow in the Dark Tour.

The watch should be here by Monday the 6th in very limited quantities. ($150)

Also, two new styles will be arriving with the package tomorrow. If you have been looking for a good balance between the premium metalics and the rubber Zub watches, then we have the answer for you: Metalic Zub watches. Check out the pictures below:
The fever is gripping the nation. Yeah, that’s right, with the election just around the corner it’s time to start thinking about who will be our head of state. If you are in the blue corner, then Undercrown has just your tee. They first released the O-Face tee featuring a caricature of Obama pulling a Vince Carter dunk over McCain to much fan-fair. They are re-issuing the shirt, which will hit our shelves hopefully by the end of next week. In addition, they are releasing the Obama Knows tee in just about every color under the rainbow. First Bo knew….now Obama knows. These tees are sure to be a hit so don’t miss out. Hit us up on email or at the shop.
Undercrown - Obama Knows Tee will be available in Black, Red, White ($38)
Undercrown - Obama ‘O-Face Tee’ will be available in Black, Grey, White ($30)
We showed you three new outerwear pieces from Hyden Yoo last week, but we wanted to fill you in on a few more styles that hit the shop. There are three shirts as well as three styles of knits. The shirts all have a nice, slim but not too slim fit and a hemline that can tuck in but won’t look ridiculous untucked over jeans (you hear that blazer and striped shirt guys?!?). Colors in stock include black and blue gingham as well as a white with black check, which you can see below. The knits are pretty bomber too. We have the L.E.S. sweater, a simple blue crew-neck pull-over with a kangaroo pocket. The Noho hooded cardigan: a camel colored cashmere/wool blend with small pockets. Up next is the Chelsea sweater, which you can see below. It’s a pull-over shawl collar cardigan with a nautical look.
Got a small box from 10 Deep. But good things come in small packages because inside was the new ‘Duck Hunt’ M-65 in a light grey combed cotton. The jacket has tons of great hidden details like all their pieces. It’s even light enough to rock in our Fall-ish weather at the moment:

You knew they were coming. After the release of the Silver then Red Sktops…there could only be one more: The Black Patent Leather Skytop. Alongside the shoe, which features metal studs similar to those you would see on punk jackets, is the Aoki Strapped. If you want something cutting edge that even the Skytop kids aren’t on, then you need to take a look. Both of these pieces should land this week, to go on sale this Saturday the 4th at Noon. Both shoes will retail for around $175 (official prices will be released later). Call or email for more information.
The video was released to announce Diesel’s ‘World-Wide Dirty Thirty’ party commemorating their 30th anniversary. This next one below looks like it was done by the same animators. Anyone know who it is?
We showed you the Timbo Skytop a few weeks back, and now you can take a look at two more Skytops set to hit Centre’s shelves this Holiday season. The shoes are slated to release in October, but as with most Supra shipments, it’s always a little up in the air. We’ll call the first one ‘Black and Purple Python’ and the other ‘Electric Blue Zebra’. Just like anything you see on our blog, contact us if you want to be notified the minute these shoes drop.
For the release of Chemical Brothers new single Midnight Madness they asked fans around the world to contribute their Photos, Videos and artwork expressing their own individual “Midnight Madness.” Then using Google Earth they located the exact geographical position of each clip they decided to use.
Oh man, we have been waiting for these for…well…a long time. You know what you are looking at; that’s right: Supra. All the colors in this delivery are b-a-n-g banging. These will hit the shelves Saturday the 27th at 12 noon. Call us if you need an update on sizing because like anything Supra, these will go fast!!!
Supra - Vadier , Black w/ Silver ($92)
Supra - Vaider , Yellow Mustard Patent Leather ($95)
With the weekend upon us and the weather spot on, it’s time to think about having some fun. There are some great options for those not headed down to Austin for ACL. The Party keeps their monthly alive tonight at, where else, Zubar and the State Fair started about 4 hours ago. If bikes are your thing, there is a bike swap meet at Bike Farm down in Deep Ellum on Sunday. Oh, and you can’t forget that the ‘boys will be taking it to the skins this Sunday in what has to be the best NFL rivalry game this season.
So, in order to enjoy the weekend, we suggest you bring along some tunes, and Girl Talk will probably put a smile on your face pretty quickly. This guy is the most ADD of all mash up artists - so much so that you will hear new samples you missed pretty much every time you listen. Put it through your car speakers, bang it on a boom box or stream it through your iPod. Whatever the case, don’t miss out on Girl Talk’s new release ‘Feed The Animals’.

For the premium customers out there we have a great new arrival from an up-can-coming designer from NYC. Hyden Yoo has been perfecting his designs for a few seasons at other labels and recently with his eponymous label, but this season is going to be his breakthough. This is classic menswear at its best. These are pieces you can keep in the closet for years.
Hyden Yoo - Pitt Bomber Jacket ($330)
Hyden Yoo - Depp Bomber Jacket ($330)
Hyden Yoo - Clooney Trench Coat ($330)

It’s no secret that we like bikes here at the shop, but the Italian manufacturers hold a special place. Colnago, Campagnolo, Bianchi, Atala…the list goes on. Well, Cinelli is definitely up there and for the track bike crowd it’s one of the ‘blue chips’. As the resurgence of track cycling continues there have been some interesting collaborations worked up. RVCA, Obey have had some hits, and now Mash SF (see our other post about them HERE) has stepped up with Cinelli to produce a frame. Let’s just let the pictures speak for themselves:

Apparently Benny Gold was responsible for the crest logo. Also, anyone recognize that Livestrong bracelet? Check out the Mash crew hanging with Lance in Austin:
