Converse Chuck Taylor All Star II Futura Collection – Converse just unveiled the first new iteration of its tech-updated Chuck II with a street smart collaboration. Featuring original artwork by legendary NYC graffiti artist Futura, the shoe comes weather-ready, with weatherized rubber and new veneering. When we visited the Converse HQ in Boston last year, one of the most unforgettable aspects of the offices was their dedication to curating genre-pushing graffiti & street art on the walls. So it’s no surprise that their latest and most exciting collaboration is with the original pioneering artist in his field. Featuring camo printed rip-stop underlay with Futura’s artwork on the upper, lace, and midsole, the shoe arrives in hi-top and ox with water resistant full rubber uppers, reflective laces, and an updated Nike Lunarlon sockliner—a nod to Futura’s graffiti background and lifestyle. The collection also arrives with a raglan tee in matching camo and a ski mask, and available for purchase on Monday February 1, 2016, at specialty retailers, Converse stores and online at Converse.com.

Josh Vides time behind bars translates to an irreverent approach and socks that resemble cigarettes, as well as another that look like the sandals commonly found in jail. The custom packaging also takes on the look of a box of Newports to complete the look. The small collection drops February 1, and retail is set at $19.

Kershaw Shuffle II – The original Shuffle is one of Kershaw’s best selling knives because of its price and function. For under $20 you get a nice, sharp blade that is liner-locked, a screwdriver, and a bottle-opener. Kershaw improves on this simple knife with the Shuffle II by offering a sharper and bigger drop-point tanto blade, and streamlining the overall aesthetic. The bottle opener is integrated more fluidly into the butt of the blade, while the screwdriver remains largely unchanged. The Shuffle II retails for a bit more, but you get a lot of utility through the minimal and clean design.

Nike Air Presto Safari – That wild spot print affectionately known as “Safari” makes a return on a ’90s classic. The Presto has been a true retro surprise for sneaker fans in 2015, and Nike has big things planned for 2016. The sleek runner returns with the bold “Safari” print across the entire sockliner and Nike throws in a vibrant grey and yellow plastic cage. There is also a bit of gum across the outsole to complete the loud look. There’s no word on a release date, but seeing as how the print and runner cover two decades, this Presto will be a big hit.
