Nike SB‘s own Stefan Janoski has seen many colorways of his signature shoe model but this latest one surely takes the cake. Sporting an all over woodland camo print upper, these pro model shoes will definitely stand out unless you find yourself walking through the woods. With a black Swoosh, piping and waxed laces sitting atop a white vulcanized sole, these are some very clean kicks. At home both on a deck and off, these will make a solid addition to any shoe collection. Look for them now at select Nike SB retailers, including Premier.

The main problems with this game is the ANIMATIONS. Nothing makes me want to push the wall more then when some bullshit happens in 2K and it's nothing I did wrong  wrong. The crossover in 2K12 is about as bad as it comes. Since when do Ty Lawson take 8 mins to crossover ? I'm glad that's fixed. I'm kind pissed so I don't feel like typing more. Having flashback from GB last night lol.

Nike may not have pioneered the “minimalist” approach to running shoes, but its Free platform has certainly become the go-to favorite for converted minimalists and die-hard runners alike. New for its fall collection,Nike is offering this Free Run+ 2 Suede pack, with three new slightly muted monotone colorway additions to the already colorful offerings of the Free Run+. Also unique to this pack is the addition of the rich, suede leather uppers, and contrasting speckled grey soles. Each shoe in the pack also gets woven rope laces to match the respective pastel, yet earthy hue of the shoe’s upper. While you can get more information on the special edition pack from issue 25 of Sneaker Freaker, also keep your eye out on select Nike stockists as September hits.

The Air Jordan 1 Mid “Metallic Platinum/Gym Red,” set to release in October, is a subtle take on the classic black, red, and white Chicago Bulls color palette. Reminiscent of the Air Jordan 9 “Johnny Kilroy,” the sneakers feature a metallic finish on a substantial part of the uppers without crossing into flashy territory. Elsewhere, familiar “Gym Red,” black accents and textured leather panels make their return, the entire upper package sitting atop a traditional AJ1 white midsole and red rubber outsole. Set to release in a mid cut, this particular Jordan Brand release continues a string of strong AJ1 releases in 2012 and will retail for $105 USD.

Marc Jacobs‘ admiration for eccentric Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama is well known. A passionate art collector, the designer was already a fan of her paintings, sculptures and “obsessive character” at the time of their meeting in 2006. For the second half of their collection, luxury house Louis Vuitton and the avant-garde polka-dot enthusiast will be releasing another round of pumpkin-inspired products. More exhibition than commercial project, the second release of the partnership’s wares will also include the display of a two meter-tall pumpkin, as well as a spotted array of bags, shoes, and apparel. The frenzied collection release/exhibition will commence on August 23 and continue until September 1 at the Louis Vuitton Matsuya Ginza location in Tokyo.

Kate Upton isn’t hard to find these days, as the Sports Illustrated cover girl has been regularly shilling her many talents for the likes of SoBe, Carl’s Jr., and of course that one particular bit with Zoo York. But the model has also linked up with audio accessory label Skullcandy of Park City, Utah as part the brand’s first Supermodel Crew member, joining fellow models Chrissy Teigen, Jessica Stam and Chanel Iman. What exactly does a Supermodel Crew model do? Wear headphones in various degrees of undress of course, and that’s just what Upton is doing in this new photo spread. You can check out her accompanying Spotify playlist curated by Upton herself here.
