adidas x Raf Simons RS DETROIT HIGH

Raf Simons and adidas Originals continues their partnership with a new model for SS19 the RS Detroit High. A update to the recent Detroit Runner - this shoe offers a high shaft, with laces all the way up, and rubberized plastic uppers in bright grey shade. A white sole offers some visual contrast, with a thick tread that weighs down the bootlike silhouette. A black and white photograph of an anonymous woman and co-branded “SS 2019” patch appear on the lateral side of each shoe, offering a hint of graphic appeal.

LE FIX: OFF FUTURE

Having lived half of one's life in a creative capsule without the Internet, where inspiration and input were limited to one's own and close circles' personal and analog surroundings, one has experienced a change in both society and state of mind.

Today, on the contrary, we have a huge range of opportunities for mass communication, and everyone has eyes everywhere. It makes it hard to stay under the radar at any stage of a creative process before the final result is displayed to the public.

With a leg in both eras, our reflections on dilemmas in both of these worlds have built the foundation for the Le Fix SS19 collection: OFF FUTURE.

PUMA and BLENDS have teamed up to create a collab edition of the 90s icon CELL Endura. Bringing back its OG glory, the latest sneaker in PUMA’s CELL range perfectly blends heritage and modern design aesthetics.

An offspring of the 'Futuristic' and 'Unusual' design idea, the CELL Endura BLENDS is decked with mesh and PU coated leather upper with iridescent metallic silver leather overlays. The fading effect of the tone change aims to represents 'Understanding of Nothing' - while there exists an infinite space of the unknown, living with uncertainty towards the future without forgetting the past is key. The sneakers stay true to the original silhouette with the Cell technology fitted on the midsole. Featuring an added loop puller on the tongue, the CELL X BLENDS co-branded sockliner completes the look.

“We need a new outline” Raf stressed before his SS19 show. Bored of printed hoodies, he had set out to bring back haute-couture and tailoring on the runway – unforgetting of his strong underground youth influences. Flawlessly cut satin Duchesse coats and trousers were sent down the catwalk, boldly asserting his couture mastery.

Inspired by Yves Saint Laurent’s daring color combinations, he tells the story of the moment Punk birthed New Wave: the generously proportioned suits, drenched in vivid ice blue, fuchsia, marigold and emerald hues, reference 70s and 80s New Wave – even bringing neon flashbacks of early Stephen Sprouse.

Underplaying the expected punk visual cues, Simons instead spikes the collection with London club scene prints, featuring safety pins and chains, while studs ornate the massive coats, along with a dash of fetish, brought to life by versatile silver d-rings spread throughout the garments.

The focus is on the graphics of the products from the 5 Moncler Craig Green line, collection n°5 of the Moncler Genius project, which combines the unique vision of the London designer with Moncler’s technical expertise. An uncompromising piece able to revolutionize any outfit.

Off-White spring summer 2019 men's collection “Impressionism” after Virgil Abloh.

The collection is inspired by “Impressionism” which is a style of painting which began in France in the late 19th century. The prints from this collection are from a 1874 canvas by Édouard Manet, of his friend Claude Monet painting in his studio boat. Virgil says that this collection is a portrait of him painting himself in the right light.

In winter, darkness comes early casting muted hues of blue and green high above, while the horizon glows of yellow and orange as the sun drops behind treelines.

Following PUMA’s relaunch of the CELL from the 90’s Running archive that saw the CELL Endura back in its OG glory, the global sports brand follows it up with the CELL Venom, a new innovative take on the archive runner.

RELEASING DECEMBER 6

When PUMA CELL technology first launched in 1998, it was revolutionary. Hexagonal cells in the midsole provided the optimal shape for stable and maximum cushioning that allowed runners to move faster and stronger with a more confident stride that aided their performance.

Originally a training shoe made for high mileage runs, the CELL Venom arrives in a new context to celebrate 20 years of its history and heritage. Updated purely with new materials and production techniques, the sneakers feature a breathable mesh upper with suede and leather overlays which sits atop an EVA midsole and rubber outsole. With CELL cushioning technology at the heel, and a chunky, disruptive design, this OG-reissue is made for the street. Expect to see more color assortments in the next few months.

A-COLD-WALL* x Nike

How does an object change with use or over time? This question is the driving force behind Samuel Ross's work on the Nike x A–COLD–WALL* Capsule Collection, starring a radical reworking of the 2010 Nike Zoom Vomero +5. "I am interested in how a garment ages and in taking the user on that journey. That is something I believe should be encouraged. It's much more human. It's much more dynamic as well," says the London-born designer.

The Nike x A–COLD–WALL* Capsule Collection reflects this philosophy in inventive fabrics, including a technical Japanese nylon that softens with warmth and heat, and the removal of PU coatings from the Nike Zoom Vomero +5 to accelerate the aging process (manifested by a yellowing).

Noon Goons SS19 Delivery 1 is inspired by west coast hiphop/rap and shot by photographer Mike Miller who has shot various west coast artist and covers for Tupac, NWA, Snoop Dog, Eazy-E and so on...

"The collection has all the codes of laidback West Coast style – cozy and oversized casualwear –but with details compounded by a catalog of references to the punk movement, surf/skate culture, and hip-hop dating back to the ’90s."
