July Staff Picks

Each month we'll be highlighting our staff's favorite items. Here's our first iteration.

Nike Dunk High Premium   Converse Chuck Taylor Hi Netted Together 1HUND(RED)
Nike Dunk High Premium "Embossed 8" ($105) / Converse Chuck Taylor Hi Netted Together 1HUND(RED) ($64)

We've selected two highs for the fellas this month, a Dunk High Premium and Chuck Taylor. The Dunk celebrates the upcoming Beijing Olympic games with it's embossed 8 pattern on the side panel.

The Chuck Taylor is a part of Converse's 1HUND(RED) collection and was designed by Ginger Jones. It's in white canvas with a mesh overlap. The neon green liner provides a nice contrast to the stark exterior.

Jordan History Made Tee   Twelve Bar Cassidy L/S Shirt
Jordan History Made Tee ($36) / Cassidy L/S Shirt ($86)

The Jordan History Made t-shirt features familiar Jordan imagery (i.e. Wings Poster, Jordan holding the NBA championship trophy, etc) revealed through the type.

Twelve Bar's Cassidy long-sleeve is a nice way to transition into the upcoming cooler weather. Done in a gingham check pattern, it features snap-button closures and western style chest pockets.

Girls Jordan 1   Nike Women's Air Force 1 Premium '07
Girls Jordan 1 ($75) / Nike Women's Air Force 1 Premium '07 ($100)

Finally, for the ladies we particularly liked the pink Jordan 1 and a perforated neon and cyan AF1.

Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Hi x Dr Romanelli 1HUND(RED) ($100)

This Saturday, March 15 at 11am, we will be releasing Dr. Romanelli's (aka DRx) Converse Chuck Taylor Hi, produced for the (RED) campaign as well as to celebrate Converse's 100th Anniversary. As a member of the (red) campaign, Converse contributes 10% of the net wholesale price of these shoes to The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria and specifically fund HIV/AIDS programs in Africa that focus on the health of women and children.

With that in mind, Dr. Romanelli designed his Chuck with a band-aid theme in a manner similar to what he's become know for, taking vintage fabrics and stitching them together to create new custom pieces. However, the band-aids on the shoe are actually laser-etched, making for a beautifully detailed and intricate design. “The 1HUND(RED) Artists project really motivated me to create something unique and I choose the band-aids as a fix for positive change.”

This shoe is only being released in select boutiques, and we're proud to be one of them.
