Edifice x Casio G-SHOCK Watch Set

Bringing a bit of a contemporary touch to the usual street stylings of Casio’s G-SHOCK, we get a peek into an upcoming project between Casio and Japanese menswear label Edifice. Two new watches will be produced within a set that finds inspiration from British design, while celebrating Edifice’s 15th Anniversary. Simple yet classy, both timepieces feature mostly white/black platforms with added stripe and polka dot motifs on the bands. Stay tuned for a further look into the project in the coming weeks.

A Bathing Ape Bape Sta 88 Mid Leopard

To compliment the small array of leopard print items from Bape under their Spring 2010 collection, are these leopard Bape Sta 88 Mids. Available now in either a white/grey/black or more traditional yellow/brown/black, the sneakers adhere to standard Bape Sta 88 markings on both the tongue and midsole. The shoes have just dropped at Bape stores in Japan for around $190, with Bape Stores across the globe expected to follow suit in the immediate future.

Nike WMNS Air Force 1 Hi Supreme LE

Gold detailing, black midsole and swoosh, complete with a shiny and croc-print-esque black upper is the line up for this, the latest drop from Nike Womens’ division. The Air Force 1 Hi Supreme LE features a canvas ankle strap, which is also black. Scales aside, this a more restrained womens’ colourway than usual which I think is a good thing, being that the usual multi-coloured and more garish colourways usually appeal more to the male than female crowd.
