Norse Projects Thor Coat – Norse Projects has been churning out quality projects for a few seasons now, and with their wet winter weather brewing, they kick things off with a battle-ready raincoat. The Thor starts by sourcing the finest wool from Loro Piana and then treats this fine Merinco wool with the latest lamination process. Throw in a little DWR and this thick warm wool is now wind and water resistant. Norse Projects even throws in a little Primaloft to give it some heft for those really cold winter storms.

Nike Air Command Force University Red – Got a wicked jumpshot like Billy Hoyle? You may not have hops, but the Air Command Force is one of the illest shoes to come out of the early nineties. This latest University Red and White iteration stays true to the original with the super-high ankle support and Nike’s bladder system. A couple of pumps in the heel gives these sneakers customized collar support. This retro may resemble snowboarding boots, but they were the highlight for any basketball gym rat.
