“The Walrus Rider” by Alex Pardee

We present to you the first toy designed by Alex Pardee, in celebration of Upper Playground’s 10th anniversary. The Walrus Rider is a cool little fellow as he sits atop his walrus friend, wielding his tusk-knife-weapon. The above promo photo was taken by Brian McCarty and is a nice dreamscape of what the rider loves to do most, think of blondes (don’t we all)! Catch the 10″ Walrus Rider if you can, as you would expect, numbers are limited. Pre Order HERE.

Nike Sportswear 2009 Holiday Preview

An early look into what’s up on deck for 2009 holiday as we take a look at some highlights which include iconic colorways making their way onto new models. The use of red and turquoise is something that has often been associated with Dutch artist Parra but little is known regarding an Air Max seen here and whether this is an official collabo, inspiration or just a coincidence. Other shoes with definite references to past drops include the HUF/DQM Air Max 90 seen now on a boot-like Air Max 90 Flywire style. Other notables are an Air Trainer 1 Chlorophyll colorway complete with forefoot strap. This whole collection is slated for a 2009 holiday release.

With 2009 being the 5th anniversary for Hong Kong retailer JUICE, the boutique and its in-house label JUICE has been hard at work developing a series of big-time collaborations. Seen last month was that of the CLOT x Kazuki x Levi’s 505 kzKLOT SILVER Series denim which drew a massive reaction from the local Hong Kong scene. This month, a new version once again designed by fragment design’s Kazuki Kuraishi is set for unveiling. This time stepping it up with GOLD, the denim is a similar design with a distressed aesthetic. CLOT Royale silk has been omitted from the weft instead, it is placed beneath the distress points for a contrasting note. The denim will release on Friday, May 15th with queues for the raffle drawings beginning at 11:00 am. The suggested retail price is $4180HKD (approximately $539 USD).
