Abington Hikers

2010-06-10T17:26:00.000-04:00

In this day and age of fashion and style, it is imperative to remain "fashion-forward". Due to the fact, Timberlands have slightly gone out of style, Sperry's have over-satured the game. Doc Martens are for the bold and daring. Dunks are EVERYWHERE and Jordans have lost their quality. Next in line, would be Abington....

In the past year, this workwear trend has gone from burgeoning to ubiquitous, with every label trying to roll out a slice of classic Americana. Abington, Timberland’s premium line, has been at it for years, crafting line after line of rugged, durable footwear. Their latest hiking boot just confirms that practice makes perfect. Each pair is made with rich, premium leather from Horween Leather Co. (a Chicago-based company founded in 1905), a melton wool collar, and a Vibram outsole – suffice to say, they’ll stand up to the elements. The Abington Hiker is an excellent option for anyone looking for a warm, sturdy, stylish winter boot.

Nike "Baseball Glove" Trainer SC 2010 L from Inside The Sneaker Box on Vimeo.

Among the first Nike Trainer SC 2010s to hit retail was a nice package of two pairs with one familiar colorway and one brand new. The ‘Auburn’ SC 2010s were obviously done for Bo Jackson, while a rustic red, white and blue look was done with Albert Pujols in mind. Here’s another pair that should be right up Pujols’ alley, the new Nike Trainer SC 2010 ‘Baseball Glove’, first previewed back in September. They look as you’d expect from that nickname, a mix of brown leather and black accents atop a white midsole with some gold contrast stitching thrown in to further emphasize the baseball glove theme. Click the jump below for a closer look, including detailed photos and a video. No specifics yet on a release date, but these should be hitting retailers some time next month.

Audi R4 Seeking Production Approval

2010-05-13T01:21:00.005-04:00

Audi is working on its R4 sports car which is a mid-engined, Boxster-sized, sports car. One bad news though is that Volkswagen has not yet given it a green light to hit the production line. Volkswagen is still to decide whether they will use an alloy or steel body construction for this new model. The platform that will be used for the Audi R4 will also be implemented on the BlueSport which was previewed in the form of the Bluesport Concept during the Detroit motor show back in 2009. The Audi R4 was previewed to the public as the e-Tron Concept during the 2010 Detroit Auto Show. The concept version used an electric motor but the production version will have an option for a 1.4L turbocharged engine and a 4-cylinder 1.6L engine running on petrol. There will also be a 2.0L 4-cylinder diesel powerplant.

The Nike Air Structure Triax 91 has been spotted in a new colorway at an overseas retailer, though this one is meant for the ladies.

Black ripstop nylon and leather come together on the upper, while brighter colors are left to draw the attention. Paradise Aqua is used on the outsole, Air Max window surround, liner, eyelets and leather Swoosh. Blue is also used at certain locations, including the heel panel. Finally, anthracite suede can be seen on both the toe and tongue. As noted above, these are a WMNS release, but some of you may still be able to fit your foot in them. If you’re one of those, head over to Purchaze.

What goes on inside Jordan’s private jet at 30,000 feet is anyone’s guess, but what we do know from a look at the outside is that Jordan travels in mid-air with style, both on and off the court.

Ronnie Fieg x Asics Gel Lyte III “Super Red” – Preview 2

2010-04-22T20:04:00.003-04:00

After almost two months of getting the first preview of the Asics Gel Lyte III “Super Red” Ronnie Fieg is finally unveiling to us another preview of the shoes to keep our mouths wet until the official release.

Providing us with a side-angled shot we can now get a better idea just how exactly Ronnie designed the shoes front to back. For the overall base two shades of grey were used on an upper constructed almost entirely from nubuck. A light shade starts around the toe and makes it’s way back to the heel sections, while a darker perforated nubuck appears on the toe-box and mid-section. Black is also thrown in to balance things out a little bit. Given the the name of the shoes it should be evident that Super Red accents are the main attraction here, appearing on a portion of the midfoot, on the entire outsole and on the Asics arches.

Ronnie Fieg isn’t releasing an exact release date for the Gel Lyte III “Super Red” at this time but judging by his “Dear Summer” comment in his blog post it shouldn’t be to much longer.

But for now they’ll just have to remain in our memories as it’s likely none of us will ever get our hands on a pair to rock.

Comprise of 2 tanned premium leather sewn on a natural rubber sole, the Mighty Ducks came about almost instinctually when the opportunity was offered. “Having access to working with what has been established as classic, quality product was a great way to launch our first footwear project” stated 10.DEEP’s founder and label creative inspiration, Scott Sasso.

Limited in availability, the 10.DEEP x Timberland – Mighty Ducks Boots will be for sale only at top tier 10.DEEP accounts, such as Reed Space, Union LA, and COMMONWEALTH, April 6th.

Medusa Nike Dunk High by Diversitile

2010-04-10T07:21:00.002-04:00

During the end of last year we created a shoe that was based off the Titan Gorgon Medusa. It was an idea we have had for the longest. Those of you that went to the Clash of the Customizer even, you saw them. We wanted to create a shoe with multiple textures and things to keep the eye moving. To start, most of the shoe has a stony cracked texture to represent the shoe being turned into stone. Followed by fire red Nike swooshes to break up the dull grey panels. Towards the back we wanted to put some type of visual imagery of Medusa herself. Her eyes are made of real red sapphires, along with the figure we created on the box. Medusa’s snakes have a sleek textured feel to them as well complementing the had stony texture of the toe. The inside of the box is lined with crushed velvet like material and is a sturdy home for the Gorgon themed dunk.

PRESS RELEASE

DC and SE Racing have collaborated for a fourth time, this time to release an updated version of the Quadangle and PK Ripper Fixed Gear. The Quadangle, SE Racing’s classic frame, has been revamped into a 26-inch cruiser. This is the first time that a large size frame has been featured on this bike. The new model is being featured in a bright fluorescent yellow that will be hard to miss on the streets. The updated PK Ripper Fixed Gear is a blend of an old school BMX and the modern fixed gear. Details from the classic PK Ripper BMX that have been incorporated in this new release include floval tubing, a landing gear fork and a loop tail rear end. The bike really pops with a bright fluorescent orange colorway.

DC and SE Racing first joined together in 2007 for their exclusive limited edition project “30 Years of Radness.” The project honored 30-plus years of BMX history, and DC and SE Racing celebrated with a re-release of the PK Ripper bike in its original aesthetic for an exclusive limited edition quantity. Truly collector’s items, these bikes are extremely limited as only 300 of each were produced. For more information, visit DC and for specifications on both bikes visit SE Racing's website

White Mountaineering x Timberland 7-Eyelet Color Welt Boot Spring/Summer 2010

2010-04-05T04:37:00.000-04:00

Personally, I could go for either colorway.

It is pretty hard to find a pair of boots that are as comfortable as a pair on Timberlands. Fresh for Spring/Summer 2010, Timberland, in collaboration with White Mountaineering are introducing the 7-Eyelet Color Welt Boot.

The boot, constructed of canvas and suede, uses a touch of leather around the ankle collar. Looking as if inspired by a boat shoe, the canvas ankle pieces are decorated with white laces and highlight colored eyelets. The actual lace stays share the highlight color on the lowest and upper most eyelet, but leave the rest to white. In addition, the bed for the stitching on the outsole uses the same highlight color.

Mercedes-Benz - SLS AMG GT3 Race Car

2010-03-31T23:19:00.001-04:00

Here are some of the first photos (leaked) of the Mercedes SLS AMG GT3 racer.

The car pictured here features a heavily revised body which includes the front bumper with large central intake and lower splitter, canard air foils, hood, fenders with deep wheel well vents, huge side sills, that massive carbon rear wing integrated into the boot lid, fuel filler pocket in the quarter panels and rear bumper with purposeful diffuser.

Naturally, the interior is completely stripped of all creature comforts such as navigation and air conditioning in favor of carbon fiber buckets and center console, an LED display instrument cluster, racing steering wheel, fire suspression system and roll cage.

Details are few on the SLS AMG GT3 racer. It will have an unspecified power boost over the 571 PS (420 kW / 563 bhp) of the standard model - somewhere north of the 600 PS (441 kW / 592 bhp) mark. There isn't much more than that to say, except to have a look at the photos and see what else you can spot.

The Mercedes SLS AMG GT3 racer will likely debut in the spring of 2011. Official details and biger photos are expected to be released on 27 March.

Dixon Class CLARKS

2010-03-14T16:48:00.002-04:00

Clarks is a company that never really goes out of style, as these Dixon Class shoes prove. Made of premium tan leather and featuring classic wing-tip perforations as first pioneered by Scottish aristocrats in the 1800s, these shoes are the perfect country shoe.

I couldn't have said it better myself....

Mercedes Benz G 350 With BlueTEC Technology

2010-03-13T05:45:00.002-05:00

Fondly known as the "G-Wagon", the ruggedized sports-utility vehicle is the preferred vehicle of Middle East Sheiks and Beverly Hills soccer moms. It is also the standard-issued transportation for the Australian Defense Force and German Army. Now in its 31st year, the G-Class SUV will undergo a slight update with the new BlueTEC technology from Mercedes.

Adopting to the efficiency of diesel-powered vehicles, engineers at Mercedes developed BlueTEC as a way to further reduce diesel vehicles' emissions, especially nitrogen oxide (NOx). By introducing its patented AdBlue urea solution to the exhaust gas, BlueTEC is able to alter 80% of the nitrogen oxide into harmless nitrogen and water. Engineers also created a easy refill method for AdBlue - simply add the solution to a separate blue valve while filling up at a pert station. A full tank of AdBlue equates to 12,000 kilometers or 7,450 miles. Armed with a V6 diesel engine, G 350 is still able to generate 210-HP yet only emits 50% of the emission when compared to the model from the previous year, a significant improvement indeed.
