| Converse Japan – All Star Hunting Collection Posted: 04 Oct 2011 06:00 AM PDT
Converse Japan is launching a round of fresh kicks for the month of October and it all revolves around the classic Chuck Taylor All Stars. From the ordinary to daring, Converse are unleashing its creativity on these new sneakers. On the moderate side of things, there are the Heavy-Canvas Hi and OX, Hunting-Jacket Hi and OX, while on the flashy side of the scale, we find Hunting-Print Hi, Hunter-Camo Hi, Hounder Hi and ML-Boots Guard Shin-Hi. Unfortunately it is unknown whether these will be available outside of Japan, perhaps it is time to contact your friend over in Tokyo for a favor.

| Nike Blazer Mid AB – Maharam TZ Pack Posted: 04 Oct 2011 04:00 AM PDT
Nike called on Maharam, a family-run textile company in business for over a century, to dress up its Tier Zero pack of Blazer Mids. The result is a shoe, available in either a grey or brown colorway, built with wide-wale corduroy and accented with tonal leather eyestays and heel detailing. A crisp white midsole and toecap, along with white laces and medial side zippers, complete the look. Perfect for autumn, they’re available now at Nike Tier Zero retailers like Stockholm’s Sneakersnstuff. Click through for detailed images of each colorway.

| HAZE: New Mathematics – Exhibition Recap Posted: 04 Oct 2011 02:00 AM PDT
HAZE‘s second solo exhibition for L.A.’s Known Gallery is winding down. His “New Mathematics” installation features 35 paintings and 15 drawings, each of the individual pieces strung together by the overarching theme of negative space vs. positive space viewed through the prism of repeating geometric patterns. It may be far removed from his graffiti roots, but it continues graffiti’s tradition of drawing the eye through compelling lines and design. The exhibition will run through Saturday, October 8th. Check out images from the full exhibit after the jump. via: 12ozProphet Known Gallery Exhibition Dates: September 17th, 2011 – October 8th, 2011

| Sprint Bets $20 Billion On Apple iPhone 5 Posted: 03 Oct 2011 07:30 PM PDT
Just hours away from the purported launch of iPhone 5 from Apple, Wall Street Journal dug up an interesting bit of information. In putting itself in the same playing field with the 2 largest wireless service providers, AT&T and Verizon Wireless, Sprint placed an order of 30 million iPhone 5 with Apple to the tune of some $20 billion dollars. For the current #3 service provider in the U.S., that is quite similar to betting the farm, the home, the corporate headquarter… heck, just about the whole company. Even if the newest generation of iPhone becomes a hot seller (and no doubt it will be), another certainty is that Sprint will not profit from the deal till the year 2014. So how about it, T-Mobile? via: WSJ

| TSUBO Winslow Boots – Fall 2011 | Available Now Posted: 03 Oct 2011 07:00 PM PDT
Striking the balance between heritage and performance can be a tricky circus act. Fortunately, with the experiences TSUBO acquired during the 14 years, that balancing act is pretty much an afterthought these days. Not wanting to depend on its merit solely, designers at TSUBO went on to elaborate what they perfected years ago, the visage of classic style based on contemporary refinements like its Winslow Boots for Fall 2011. Premium leather shaped with baroque accents and hand polished, each upper rested on a dual density PU foam footbed. An EVA midsole and rubber outsole cushion the pressure further for a feel that is more alike to a pair of sneakers than boots. In Dark Grey or Brown, the Winslow Boots are available now through TSUBO retail locations around the globe as well as its online store.

| ARK Performance x Hyundai Veloster – SEMA 2011 Edition Posted: 03 Oct 2011 03:30 PM PDT
Coming to the 2011 SEMA trade show next month and possible to the Hyundai dealership near you next year, the ARK Performance x Hyundai Veloster takes full advantage of Veloster’s flexibility for upgrades. The end product is a heavily modified twin turbocharged inline-four with 210-horsepower of output. To balance out its power, ARK Performance added 11 other components and a race inspired neon green on dark grey appearance. Certainly the upgrade didn’t stop there. ARK Performance lavished the car’s interior with Alcantara enhancements from JPM Coachworks Custom, ear drums bursting audio system by Image Dynamics, and more. To see the car in person, be sure to visit Hyundai’s booth at SEMA 2011 from November 1st to November 4th, in Las Vegas.
