SOPHNET. Military Elbow Patch Crewneck Sweat

How amazing that a simple touch of military garments that are usually seen on pilot's bomber jacket, being stitched on a standard crew neck sweats, can take it to another different level of a statement pieces. Whoever came up with this design is a genius.

RRL's Classic 5 Pocket Jeans Still Fascinates Me


Back in the days when i was still dedicate my entire life to denim, i was really looking for a pair of RRL / double RL denim since it has a really good design, and wonderful arcuate stitch on the back pocket, and i don't really into those Japanese denim and stuff. Well, recently, Union Made Goods stock complete washes of RRL Slim Fit jeans.

Is it only me or is STAMPD x Vans OTW Tesella a copy of Nike's Mayfly Woven?

Charcoal Hunter Wool Pants from Filson

Filson is one of those heritage brand that always put functionality & style together. For Context Clothing, they send out a lightweight, straight leg pants made from US-sourced 100% virgin wool, that comes with zipper fly 2 slash pockets, 1 rear flap pocket, and extra 1 utility pocket, and double layer reinforcement on lower legs, as well as the articulated knees for mobility. 

SS15 from White Mountaineering

For me, White Mountaineering is that Japanese brand that sometimes came with some great pieces, and sometimes they don't. Their recent preview on their upcoming Spring / Summer 2015 tho, seems to have some good pieces that still brings out the elements of Sportswear / Outdoor inspiration, as well as Military.

That Black Air Rift Though

Nike recently came up with the follow up to their Genealogy of Free, with the Black Pack. These following items, the Air Presto, Sock Racer, and Air Rift : Fire.

Happy Eid Everyone!

These No-Collar M65 Jacket Tho

Recently stumbled upon these beautiful No-Collar M-65 Jacket from VICTIM & CO. Dig.







The color-block-toe-sneakers is becoming a thing on its own?

Sneaker trends is always changing. Some trends has its own sustainability, such as the clean cut sneakers with minimalistic designs, in least colors as it can be (such as what Common Projects or Ambassadors by Verginia is doing), to sneakers with bold patterns (like what Nike did with their liberty london collections, or with their nike ID upper material options), or even sneakers with artwork / photo print options (like what adidas recently re-introduced). Aside from those, you must be remember how it was when Ronnie Fieg came up with this beautiful 'Salmon Toe' Asics Gel Lyte III? and then when he took that very same idea into his work with Clarks Originals, dubbed the Kildare? (how dumb was Clarks Originals that actually approved this model into production?).



Apparently, these toe color block design has its own thing going-on on the sneaker game. People tried (and still) to apply those unique color blocking thing to their own by customing a pair such as to Nike Roshe Run, New Balance 574, and the most recent are the releases from Adidas, Converse, and Puma.
