Nike Dunk Low: US Passport

Like the UK Passport edition does, the latest US Passport edition is simulating both colorway and texture of its cover in a tonal obsidian nubuck made upper and accented by beige outline over the Swoosh.

Lake Lugano House, Switzerland

The residence and office, designed by Milan-based architect Jacopo Mascheroni of JM Architecture for a financial consultant and her family, consists of two sections: a rounded glass pavilion and a reinforced concrete structure that is partially inserted into the mountain. The 3,700 square-foot glass house forms the most visible part of the residence and resembles a viewing pavilion of a major sightseeing attraction. It is an open-concept living space, with a white-walled central section that contains the kitchen, bathroom, stairway, storage and mechanical room.

Louis Vuitton Private Island

Louis Vuitton made big moves in both the fashion and real estate world when they announced Maison, a luxury store operating on a private island. Located in Marina Bay Sands, Singapore, and designed by famed architect, Peter Marino, Maison boasts both his and hers collections, jewelery and a truly unique bookstore. This marks the 12th Maison in the wold, and the first in Southeast Asia. Take to the sky in the video to get a birds eye view of the sheer decadence.

Supra Skyboot Army Edition

Had to cop these to, I think I have issues. Inspired by the iconic Skytop silhouette, a true all-weather boot built on a rugged lug outsole for extra durability. Heaveyweight moccasin-style stitching around the toe box communicates traditional boot heritage while the distinct lines of the Skytop are intergated seamlessly into the upper platform. Raw leather laces complement the sturdy eyelets and trim. Ideal in any terrain or weather conditions, a gusseted tongue protects from rain and snow and the signature internal tongue stash pocket keeps valuables safe and dry. Lightweight polyurethane footbeds provide cushioning for all day comfort.

ISO & Stance Nation BBQ

Looks like the BBQ in NC had a great turn out today. I had to miss due to other obligations but I know my XclusivAlliance brothers were there to represent the DMV. ISO is a great group of people and always take care of us when were down in the dirty south. More to come...

Commonwealth / Saucony Jazz Low Pro

The collaboration is based on the popular and sought-after the 1981 original, Jazz Original. The sneaker’s design is undoubtedly a nod to the classic red brick sole theme that has become so prevalent in recent times. Look for a release in the near future.

Maiden Noir: Fall/Winter 2011 Collection

This collection is right up my alley for this winter. As usual they keep it clean and subtle, presenting a great range of staple pants, sweaters, hoodies, shirts, outerwear and more. The accessories range is also looking really nice this season, featuring beanies, caps, leather gloves and for the first time Maiden Noir footwear. For now the footwear seems to consist of a mid top Chukka Boot and a low top Moccasin. Both feature Vibram outer soles and have been produced in Japan. Along with the collection, these are now available in each three colorways, in the Maiden Noir online store.
