Supreme X North Face

Image
A collaboration that has happened many time before and one that many street fashion wearers look forward to is back again, Supreme and North Face. This collaboration will be dropping in stores and online November 30th and will most likely be sold out in minutes. This release includes a winter jacket, crewnecks, t-shirts, hats, backpacks, and accessories. The entirety of the release has not be shown yet, but will most likely come as the release date becomes closer. The jacket, that is probably the most hyped item of the drop, is simply put, fresh. It is a North Face jacket with a North Face and Supreme patch on the right shoulder with a picture print of beautiful snow covered mountains. The detailed photo of the mountains gives this jacket the hype that it deserves, it is such a clean and cool design that makes the wearer look built for the cold. The shades of light and dark blue that are apart of the mountain make it stand out to the viewer with the subtle white background and white...

Yeezy Boost 350 V2

The very hyped and look for new Yeezy Boost 350 V2's are coming out this month in November and one in December. These Yeezy Boosts are coming out in three different color ways: Frozen Yellow, Grey, and Blue Tint. Personally, I am not the biggest fan of the Yeezy shoes, but I do like the color way of the Blue Tint. The key feature of the Blue Tint that I think is so appealing is that it looks mostly white to the eye, but has blueish tints (hence the name) throughout the show which gives it a special splash of excitement. The shoe is made of primeknit which is a very comfortable knit type of cloth that is suppose to mold to your foot. Then the bottom of the shoe is made of the rubber with the key Yeezy Boost feature, lines throughout the shoe. These shoes are being released in three different drops on three different dates. The Frozen Yellow and Grey color ways are being dropped in November, while the Blue Tint color way is being released in December. These shoes will be priced at ...

KITH Winter Collection 2017

Image
Kith has just released the sneak peak of their 2017 winter collection that should be coming up in the next couple of weeks. This collection is one that seems to go off the main path of what Kith has been in its prosperous, but short lifetime. In this collection we see the addition of parkas, jackets, and many flannels. There are 13 new design silhouettes that are being shown in this release and a complete new style of the Mercer IV Pant. The jackets and parkas are not the usual designs that we see from Kith's Ronnie Fieg, they are jackets that are top of the line Italian shearling, which is a material we have never seen from Ronnie. There also seems to quite a lot more of the camo-print in this collection than ever before. There are sweatpants, a parka, and a hoodie all in full camo-print. These camo-print pieces catch the eye of the consumer and I suspect that will be a hot piece of the collection. This risky design strategy is one that I think will payoff for Kith. Flannels are b...

One of the most hyped collaborations is going to be dropping tomorrow November 2nd. This is a collab that has been teased at for decades and has finally come to surface. This is the Supreme X Akira collaboration dropping tomorrow, Thursday November 2nd at Supreme's online store and retail stores. For people who don't know what Akira is, it was a Japanese manga series created by Otomo that made its debut in 1982 and finished in 1990. This series was extremely popular because it showed a fictitious post-World War III where Tokyo is destroyed by a nuclear bomb. The premise of the show was the Tokyo is plagued with terrorism, drug use, and gruesome gang violence. The two main characters of this show we two best friends Kaneda and Tetsuo who were members of a motorcycle gang called The Capsules. These two characters, their motorcycle, their gang, and the social problem of drug abuse are key illustrations that are featured in this Supreme collaboration. Supreme X Akira Fishtail...
