Supreme x UNDERCOVER – Supreme and UNDERCOVER have worked alongside each other before, but this is arguably one of the largest and most elaborate collaborations Supreme has committed to. In lieu of a focus on co-branded graphic T-shirts (there’s those, too) the collection focuses on a decadent overcoat and then moves right to a MA-1 flight jacket and another athletic coach’s jacket. There are also bottoms and sweaters, and then the casual hoodies and tees. The collection doesn’t stop there and moves to a three-party project with Dr. Marten. This extensive collection with UNDERCOVER is due out this Thursday, September 21. We’re already preparing to cop that Seven Samurai shirt.

Call me 917 F/W 2016 – It’s really incredible what a strong fanbase can do for a skate brand. Alex Olson’s Call me 917 and Bianca Chandon is one part art house and another part skate junkie. The items are simple, but are made to invoke a edgy artistic feel. Olson has been very vocal about the direction of his brand and for Fall 2016 Call me 917 releases a handful of graphic T-shirts that are now sold out. Using very simple designs and rudimentary fonts, the collection can look like a joke by those that aren’t aware of Olson’s personal involvement with the project. The line between street and fashion continued to be blurred, but when Kanye can sell out Gildan T-shirts with a modified Old English print who’s to say Olson can’t?

PHANTACi x New Balance – Taipei is home to many sneaker boutiques, but not one has achieved a rich 10 year history like Jay Chou’s PHANTACi. The store is no stranger to collaboration, but for the 10 year anniversary, they work with New Balance to create a special make-up of the 997.5. The hybrid silhouette plays very well against PHANTACi’s choice of black, white, and a vivid pink. Look for the special edition to come with custom handtags and a exclusive release at PHANTACi first, and eventually a global drop.

adidas ZNE – You didn’t think adidas would stand idly by while Nike snags Errolson Hugh for ACG, did you? Technical sportswear is now part of adidas’s range with an all-new ZNE collection. The collection has a premium feel and starts things off with a set of hoodies, zip jacket, and track pants made from thick breathable cotton-polyester blends. This first drop sticks with a clean white with black contrast branding. adidas doesn’t opt for a new logo, but it is clear that the ZNE wouldn’t be found at your local Macy’s (at least not this season anyways).

The photos have been in the works since 2002 and includes eight year of reflective and introspective pictures.

Panasonic Lumix LX 10 – Sony’s RX line is believed to be the best point-and-shoot cameras for the photo enthusiast, but Panasonic is no slouch. Their Lumix is often a carbon copy of Leica’s more-expensive entry-level collection and the latest is the LX10. The latest iteration has a 1-inch, 20 megapixel sensor that is paired with a lightning-fast, f/1.4-2.8 24-72 mm zoom lens. In addition to the raw power, the camera is capable of 4K video, and a 180º flip-up touchscreen for tap-focusing and selfies.
