Stussy x Schott Wool Onestar Jacket

Following up on our September preview, Stussy teams up with fellow American motorcycle/leather specialists Schott on a Onestar jacket. Highlighted by a use of premium wool, the asymmetrical zipper and detailing adds a nice motorist touch to a classic looking platform. Coming in three different colorways, the release date is scheduled for November 29th, 2008 with a price tag of ￥39,900 (Approx. $418 USD).

Nike Sportswear Dunk High Vandal

Coming on the heels of the previously seen satin black Dunk High inspired by fellow basketball shoe the Vandal, two other colorways have surfaced to compliment the originally seen black model. Two further tonal colors in red and white are featured sharing the shame monotone stylings. No word yet on availability.

Nike Air Force 1 Supreme “Cavaliers”

Nike’s goldenboy LeBron James potentially has another Air Force 1 on the horizon with this Cavaliers colorway Supreme. With a visible heel unit seen through a translucent midsole, the negative stitching creates a sleek and clean upper with a perforated pattern seen on the toebox and side panels. Other details include a red leather insole and lining as well as the LBJ23 logo on the heel. No word yet on a release date.

Honda FC Hydrogen Car

With the electric-driven Tesla Roadster earning a great deal of respect for its on-road performance and eco-friendly demeanor, Honda has recently unveiled their own stab at an alternative energy vehicle. The sports-minded FC Sport car is powered by hydrogen with a high-performance electric powertrain in a three-seater format. With Honda’s wealth of racing knowledge, this could prove to give traditional gas consuming sport cars a run for their money. Currently in its prototype stages, we don’t anticipate a release for some time.

Nike Sportswear Air Max 90 Moire

Upon its inauguration, the Air Zoom Moire was one of the original representatives of Nike’s newly founded Nike + initiative with Apple offering a music-driven workout tool. In a theme we’ve seen consistently executed with grace and finesse, the likeness of the Air Zoom Moire is met with that of another relatively newcomer, the icon-based Air Max 90 Current. The one piece upper of the shoe is seam-less while still maintaining the familiar lines which make it unmistakable Air Max 90 inspired. The perforations of the Moire also make up the upper of the shoe. These are slated for a 2009 spring/summer release.

DTA x Black Scale x 7 Union Fitted Cap

Having already worked on a project earlier this year, DTA by Rogue Status revisit their collaboration alongside Japanese brand 7 Union for a second go round. Bringing Black Scale on board this time, the triple collabo fitted piece features top notch embroidery with a familiar black/yellow colorway, celebrating all three labels trademark detailing. Much like the first cap, this version showcases the “Don’t Trust Anyone” catchphrase underneath the bill with an overall clean cut aesthetic.
